Rule application order: alert->pass->alarm

By default, pass rules are applied last.  You need to change the order of
the applications of rules.  With custom types, they are applied last
unless you change the order.

You can change the order with "-o" or a config directive.  If you want
'alarm' to go first, then you need to use the config directive [0]:

        config order:  alarm pass alert dynamic

Cheers!
