SNORT_PP_DEBUG not functioning

System Architecture: x86_64
Operating System and version: Linux localhost.localdomain
3.8.2-206.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP
Version of Snort: 2.9.4
What preprocessors you loaded: Default
What rules (if any) you were using: Default
What output plug-ins you loaded: Default
What command line switches you were using: -i eth1 -C -c
/etc/snort/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort
Any Snort error messages: N/A
Environmental Variables: SNORT_PP_DEBUG=0x0000000E00000000
Compile Flags: --enable-dbg --enable-dbg-msgs

The Preprocessor debug messages do not display even when the proper
configuration options and environmental flags are set. debug.c is shifting
the bits out of the variable erroneously as they are already in the upper
32 if they are copied from snort_debug.h. Perhaps the intended format is to
always use the lower 32 bits, but that is not clear from the snort_debug.h
file...
