The maintainer knows about the broken state of FLEXSRESP2
patch, as he
was the one who submitted the change to mark it broken in
revision
1.70 (2006/08/30 04:26:53 clsung) when it was first
introduced.

It also looks like snort 2.8.1 now incorporates the
FLEXRESP2 patch in
the main source.  I submitted PR 124048 to remove the BROKEN
state of
FLEXRESP2.

The default state for FLEXRESP2 is OFF.  The only OPTION
that is
enabled is dynamic plugin support (DYNAMIC) for a plain
snort build.
