It doesn't look like you actually updated the plugin the way you meant to.
As I read the code of the plugin you have nested if's that test for the same
thing in the 10.2 section:

if ( ereg(pattern:"Mac OS X 10\.2\.[0-7]", string:os ))
{
report = "
The remote host is running Mac OS X 10.2. This version is not supported
by Apple any more, you should upgrade the remote host to the latest version
of Mac OS X.";
if ( ereg(pattern:"Mac OS X 10\.2\.[0-7]", string:os ))
{
report += "
In addition to this, the remote host should at least be upgraded to
MacOS 10.2.8 using 'softwareupdate', as it's the last supported version
of the system";
}

I think you meant to make the first if test be:
ereg(pattern:"Mac OS X 10\.2\.", string:os )

As a side note: Does Apple publish anywhere what versions of products it
still supports or statements about when future support will cease? (The last
time I asked an Apple person they told me they technically still supported
OS9. This was about 6 months ago, so I didn't really believe him, but I
haven't been able to find anything in writing.
