[Snort-users] Curious "Tagged Packet" alerts in ACID

I am getting a rather high (top 5) number of alerts showing up in ACID
displaying as simply "Tagged Packet" and having an sid=1, e.g.:

> [snort] Tagged Packet unclassified 7118 (24%) 1 2 2 2004-12-31 18:02:59 2004-12-31 19:27:17

The URL given for reference is simply:
http://www.snort.org/snort-db/sid.html?sid=1

Here is a sample whole formatted alert:

Where is this coming from? I can't find a rule, only a mapping:

> [root@aardvark snort]# grep Tagged ./*
> ./gen-msg.map:2 || 1 || tag: Tagged Packet

This is snort 2.2.0 Build 30 with freshly oinkmaster'ed rulesets from:

www.snort.org/dl/rules/snortrules-stable.tar.gz and
www.bleedingsnort.com/bleeding.rules.tar.gz

These seemed to start about the time I added the bleedingsnort rules,
but this may just be a coincidence.
