Rules with SDF options cannot have other detection options in the same rule

when compiling snort WITHOUT flexresp3, SDF rules will fail:

ERROR: /usr/local/etc/snort/./preproc_rules/sensitive-data.rules(1) Rules with SDF options cannot have other detection options in the same rule.

this ./configure:

--enable-dynamicplugin --enable-build-dynamic-examples --enable-reload --enable-reload-restart --disable-corefiles --with-dnet-includes=/usr/local/include/libnet11 --with-dnet-libraries=/usr/local/lib/libnet11 --with-mysql=no --with-odbc=no --with-postgresql=no --disable-prelude --enable-gre --enable-mpls --enable-decoder-preprocessor-rules --enable-zlib-enable-normalizer --prefix=/usr/local

i googled, but only see this: (with no answer yet)
<http://seclists.org/snort/2010/q2/826>

if the answer is 'add --enable-flexresp3'. then fine, but it doesn't make sense unless I don't understand the error.

stock sensitive-data.rules:

alert tcp $HOME_NET any -> $EXTERNAL_NET [80,20,25,143,110] (msg:"SENSITIVE-DATA Credit Card Numbers"; metadata:service http, service smtp, service ftp-data, service imap, service pop3; sd_pattern:2,credit_card; classtype:sdf; sid:2; gid:138;
rev:1;)
