Blake, could you try this on a 2.2.x kernel? I am not sure about this,
but given that I get similar problems with squid on 2.4.x, I think its
not a snort problem but a glibc/kernel problem.
Squid on my system (PIII 600, 1GB ram, 2.4.x any) and snort here both 
show similar problems (gettimeofday()).
