Would you consider it a bug to fail on a signal 30, if system build with targetbased, and doesn't have a targets.xml 
file?

You might ask, why send a signal 30 to reload the targets.xml file if you don't have system compiled with 
--enable-targetbased?

(freebsd sends a signal 30 is you send it a SIGUSR1)

I might ask, if --enable-targetbased is NOT specified, why include the code to look for the targets.xml file?


--enable-targetbased, I thought, was on and built in by default in recent versions.  So I am not sure where the bug 
lies.  sig 30 for Snort?  Or freebsd for sending a sig 30 on a USR1?  Not sure here.
