snort 2.9.0.3 flexresp3 and active-response

[Michael Scheidell <michael.scheidell () secnap com>]

I noticed that starting with snort 2.9.* there are seemly two configure 
flags that affect flexresp.

a) --enable-flexresp3 (similar to 2.8.6.1 flexrep and flexrep2)

but there is a new one:

b) --enable-active-response

Q for ports/rpm maintainers:

if user enabled flexresp3 during compile time, should we also enable 
active-response?

is there any reason to enable one without the other?
it appears to me that you would want both or none.
