alert http any any -> any any (msg:"HTTP TEST"; sid:3030303; rev:1;)

Does not hit on:

http://dropcanvas.com/iaq1w

I had a couple of the guys double check.  Tested 2.0.8, 2.0.9, 3.1.3,
and 3.2dev (rev 94bc7e5), which I just pulled.

Here's the headers from that pcap (defanged):

poSt /armstrong/summertime.php HTTP/1.1
Content-Length: 0
Accept: */*
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; Win32; WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5)
Host: apex(.)godsreal(.)com
Connection: Keep-Alive

If you get different results, something is amiss.
