pcre:!"/GET|POST/smi"; classtype:Web-application-attack; sid:1260736; rev:4;)

That shouldn't work. You can't specify a content modifier to a PCRE; if you
want the PCRE to operate just on the method, you need the /M flag.

Right, sorry:

pcre: "/^([^GP]|G[^E]|GE[^T]|GET[^ ]|P[^O]|PO[^S]|POS[^T]|POST[^ ])/iM";

(I still hope this approach is valid).
