Without looking at the code, I recall that the parser has a limit of 
8192 characters per line *after* variable expansion.  So, you should 
still be safe running with a 2000 character variable definition.  My 
suggestion is to try it and if you have any problems (other than 
possible performance issues already noted), let us (the snort team) know 
by sending an e-mail to snort-devel () lists sourceforge net and we will 
look into fixing it.
