Ok Ok, don't burn me. I followed the FAQ and look where it got me ;) I
use gdb once in never ;)  This is what I meant to sent. For fear that
snipping will decrease reproducibility I've included it all :D 

In this case bad stuff first: 

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Instead of "run snort ...." try just "run <options>" without the word
'snort'.  Libpcap is seeing that and trying to interpret it as a BPF style
filter, hence the syntax error with OpenPcap.
