I too thought that the '-v' parameter might override the output plugins in
snort.conf.  But when I quickly checked the ParseCmdLine() function in the
1.9.0 source, I didn't see pv.alert_cmd_override being set to '1' for the
'-v' parameter -- the only thing set is 'pv.verbose_flag = 1'.  So I figured
that 'v'erbose mode didn't necessarily disable the output plugins.

Also, usually when the output plugins are overridden, Snort displays a
message to the console.

Is this a BUG?!

Nope.  It's a case of my twisted mind thinking the right thing at the
wrong time.  :)  I sorta read "-dv" on the command line since I've always
seen it used that way.  Actually, I don't think I've ever ran it without
using those two together....

Anways, no bug.  Just me going to take my penalty drinks.  ;-)
