I hate to do a "me too" - but, me too.

I was sitting on it until I could come up with something more 
substantial to help find the problem, but I've seen snort trigger a 
"EXPLOIT ssh CRC32 overflow NOOP" between two hosts I control, and yet 
the packet captured by snort was actually HTTP headers bunged onto the 
end of some binary data.

It wasn't SSH data, it wasn't HTTP data, it was...? Packet length was 
2630 - which makes me think there's still a bug in how snort aggregates 
packets together into flows

This was snort-2.2.0 under Fedora Core 2
