The tests showed that modifying the rule by having it not match "penny" and
requiring it to end on a word boundary takes care of all the false positives
without adding any false negatives other than penny stock spam. Since this rule
should not be catching penny stock spam, I think that the overall result is an
improvement in accuracy.

I have checked in the change to trunk, 3.2, and 3.1 rules, as well as to the
3.2 and 3.1 update channels.

Revisions checked in:

692941 trunk rules
692942 3.2 rules
692943 3.2 update
692946 3.1 rules 
692947 3.1 update

Not really relevant to this bug, but while looking at this I found that
FRT_PENIS, which is a similar body rule in the 3.2 update channel, already
makes sure that it doesn't match pennysaver and penny stock, but improved
accuracy by adding a word boundary, so I checked that in too.
