My guess is that in this case a new preprocessor was created that uses the same
ID as another.

sounds/reads plausible to me ;)

with that in mind, i'd suspect that the OP may have enabled an additional 
preprocessor that conflicts with another... i'm thinking of the stream4/stream5 
type stuff...

@richard martin:
can you post your preprocessor settings from your snort config?
