2) make maintainer  shows the maintainer as ports@freebsd.org

3)  http://www.snort.org/documentation.html is stuffed full of em. The third 
one in the list might prove interesting.

fwiw  I recommend installing from  cvs,  (that way you get the latest 
greatest rule-set and both ACID and SNORT are very much wip, so changes are 
rather frequent.

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.snort.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/snort login
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.snort.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/snort co snort
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.acidlab.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/acidlab \ 
login  (note this is one line)
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.acidlab.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/acidlab \
co    acid     (note this is one line)

when prompted for password just press enter

and it's worth making sure that your versions of PHP and adodb are reasonably 
recent as well.
