That message just means that rl0 left promiscuous mode.  Somewhere near
Snort's startup messages you should see 'rl0: promiscuous mode enabled' or
something similar.  This is standard BSD behavior.

My guess is that this is a symptom, not the problem.  Try running snort with
your current arguments but also add -v and remove -D.  This will hopefully
give you a better idea of what's causing Snort to shut down unexpectedly.
