Updated ebuild commited to CVS, and will reach your local rsync server in 30 minutes or so.

I just want to comment that Snort 2.0.6 and 2.1.0 have a weakness which can cause improper identification of a signature and therefore mislabeling of some network events.
I think it would be a good idea to mark 2.1.1 stable as soon as possible.
