Following up to myself: I’ve tried various permutations of my BPF 
filter to
no avail. I tried Snort versions 2.9.5.3 (which is what’s on my old 
sensor),
2.9.6.0, and 2.9.6.1. Always, Snort says it’s reading my BPF 
filter, and
always, it’s including alerts for IPs and networks that are in the 
filter.

My current filter is of the form:

not (net 1.2.3.4/8 or not net 10.0.0.0/24 or not 172.16.12.1)

this may not be related to your problem but i can't help seeing the 
double
negatives in the above... are you wanting to include or exclude 
traffic to/from
10.0.0.0/24 and 172.16.12.1?

if you want to exclude traffic from them, perhaps you mean to use

not (net 1.2.3.4/8 or net 10.0.0.0/24 or 172.16.12.1)

That’s actually what I’m using, I just can’t transcribe properly.
