PulledPork modifysid issue

["Castle, Shane" <scastle () bouldercounty org>]

I am using the PulledPork distributed with Security Onion, but I have verified that there is no difference between this 
version and 0.6.1 in the modifysid area. My issue is that I can't get any modifysid.conf line that refers to an IP 
address to work. For example:

2402001 "173.236.44.0\/24," ""

Rewriting it without the "\", adding "\" before all the dots, or anything, results in the line being ignored by PP as 
far as I can tell. Turning $Verbose to 2 shows what sids are modified, and the sid I want modified is not listed. 
Changing the sid to "*" has no effect, either. (BTW, the modify_sid sub seems not to like prefixing "1:" to the sid.)

I suspect the two regexes after the "while" in the modify_sid sub, but my examination of them yields no insights. My 
alternative is to disable the sids, and unless there is a quick fix that's what I'll have to do.
