It's a known problem which was supposed to be fixed with the latest McAfee definitions update.
Is your McAfee installation fully updated?
"The question I would like to know, is the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe and Everything. All we know about it is that the Answer is Forty-two, which is a little aggravating."
I have an enterprise version installed on my work computer and I presume that it is updated regularly. Here are the version details:
McAfee Host Intrusion Prevention 7.0.0 (Build 833)
Security Content version 3054
I got the same problem here with McAfee Enterprise 8.7i (engine 5400.1158, Dat file 5920.0, Artemis! low):

So the dat files do not detect these but the Artemis! heuristic module does.

I have reported this to McAfee. Please do the same via your support contacts or any in-program "Report False Positive" buttons.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
