Well, if anyone knows something that's a false positive, let the snort 
developers know so they can fix it ASAP.

Are you really trying to generate _false_ positives, or just generate 
alerts? Not all alerts require an actual overflow to occur..

A nessus safe-mode scan should fire off at least a few alerts, although 
I'll admit I haven't tried it recently.
