I'm having the same issue as you guys.  Snort 1.9 CVS current, kernel 2.4.19.
It was happening with 1.8.7 as well.

Tried upgrading from Snort 1.8.6 to 1.9 on a Debian 2.2.20 system
and I find that the eth0 interface enters promiscuous mode then
returns back to normal.

Options used are.

start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec $DAEMON -- \
   -D -c /etc/snort/snort.conf \
   -l /var/log/snort/ \
   -b

I also tried 1.8.7 and this also suffers the same problem I find with
1.9

Anybody seen this before and know the solution ?

I saw it as well 

however when I built a new snort box with snort 1.9.0 the problem hasn't
manifested it's self yet ( I had forgotten till I saw your post) 

I *think* it was a bug in 1.8.7 though with no proof or time to
investigate I left it
