They probably derive from the default scanner set the unix commandline
client uses when it creates a config file if one doesn't already exist;
ie, see preferences_new in nessus-core/nessus/preferences.c.  The actual
set of scanners has varied over time -- 10277 and 10278 were in 2.0.x
while the former was removed in 2.2.0 (a bugfix according to CVS).
