I would not want to call a penalty on the defence if the defensive player was really calling a legimate signal or warning to his teamates. The defense has as much right to call signals as the offense, as long as they are not imitating a "hut" or "hike". I think that this is an instance where you can really do some preventative officiating and warn the defensive signal-caller if he is borderline. Your first action shouldn't be a flag unless the first action is obviously meant to deceive.
