In the case of this rule we just have not seen any current discussion for this rule.  We are asking here if anyone 
knows more about why this rule has been placed back into the VRT snort rule set.
Thank you for asking. This wasn't "placed back" into the ruleset, it seems as if we didn't cover this particular 
piece of the traffic to begin with, so while the references are from 2008, it's still a relevant rule. 

Got to cover those test suites :)  Useless otherwise, but makes the test
suite results look better :)
