Log message:
Bringing STABLE up to Snort v2.1.2

* Fixed conversation parsing faults so users can operate this preprocessor
* Detect non-rfc standard chunk encodings (thanks H.D. Moore).  Detect
abnormal HTTP requests with newlines, spaces, etc. before the request
method (thanks, Kanatoko <[email protected]>).
* Fix invalid ptr reference that occurred on Fedora.  Thanks to
[email protected] for posting details to the list.  This should also
help reduce any false positive 'U Decoding' alerts.
* Fix possible condition where request pipeline URL gets inspected, but
the rest of a packet doesn't.  Thanks [email protected] for finding
this condition.
* Fix negative stats output on snort exit or SIGUSR1.  Thanks to
[email protected] and others.
