If you are worried about back doors in Snort:
Snort is OpenSource.
Snort source archives going back several years (at multiple locations) are
available as well as vendor supplied packages/etc containing the original
source code in signed packages (such as source rpm's)
Snort CVS logs are available at public archives of mailing lists/etc.
Using diff and CVS logs to look for strange changes is not hard (time
consuming, but not hard).
Auditing the current code is also possible, probably harder then reading
just the diffs, but certainly within the realm of possibility.
