Who says there is anything wrong with it? There is no comment indicating it was
rejected.

If you are simply wondering why it hasn't been applied, then you need to
remember that we all do this in our spare time. Please be patient.

Also, bugs that are for extraordinary conditions are much lower priority than
other issues. We strongly recommend running AgentX over UNIX sockets, on the
same host, where partial PDUs should not occur. Also I'd argue that you
shouldn't expect a response to a partial packet/PDU. I think dropping the
packet is a perfectly reasonable response.

You are lost in a twisty maze of little standards, all different.
