Freebsd snorters: test port of 2.9.0.3 available

[Michael Scheidell <michael.scheidell () secnap com>]

I have an alpha (test) version of the ports files needed to 
make/upgrade/portinstall snort 2.9.0.3 on Freebsd 7.3+
it is NOT based on 
<http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/153998> which I wasn't 
able to get to work right.
if fixes missing/misplaced preprocessor libs/and rules that have plagued 
the freebsd port for a long time.
adds in optional support for targetedhost (was not in 2.8.6.1 port)
make some previously optional knobs mandatory (I could not get it to 
compile at all without dynamicpreprocessor support)
installs sample decoder.* rules
included ports libpcap, includes daq support. might even include 
ipfw/daq support.

actually passes snort -T -c /usr/local/etc/snort.conf-sample lint!

note: I don't think it will wipe out your current snort.conf.
as always, back up everything.

if anyone wants it, email me and I will send you the tarball, which 
replaces /usr/ports/security/snort/ Makefile,... distfiles, ../ etc.

note: snortsam is NOT in this yet.  so if you want snortsam and snort, 
stay with 2.8.6.1
