The problem I am having is it is logging portscans to my database
from IP's which are in my preprocessor portscan ignore-hosts list.
[...] I have turned on the new Portscan2 preprocessor, and all the
alerts from these IP's show as (spp_portscan2). Is there some way
to exclude IP addresses from the Portscan2 preprocessor, [...]

Thanks to Erek Adams for pointing this out to me; you need:

        preprocessor portscan2-ignorehosts: ...
                             ^
                             |

i.e. for the portscan2 preprocessor, the -ignorehosts directive was
renamed to match.
