Description (partial) 

Symptom:
Some multistring components may not fire due to the match length being miscalculated.
This is a rare situation, but can be seen with signatures using the "match length" parameter,
which has a counting irregularity.

Conditions:
Certain patterns and lengths in a TCP stream can stimulate the condition.
