No, the snort INSTALL file *is* up-to-date; it says

  On linux with kernels 2.2.x and higher you may also get feature to
  monitor several interfaces down to network level (session + TCP + IP) if you
  link your snort with the lattest version of libpcap which incorporates
  Sebastian Krahmer's patch for interface 'any'.

That doesn't say "get Sebastian's patch", it says "get the latest
version of libpcap, which has that patch in it", which is correct.
