Hmmm...
I can see the thinking behind this approach, but I'm not convinced that
it's correct.  In particular, someone might well be deliberately using
SNMPCONFPATH in order to avoid loading the "normal" config files.

It would probably be more in keeping with the project style to use
a syntax such as

        SNMPCONFPATH=+/some/directories/to:/add/to:/default/list
vs
        SNMPCONFPATH=/some/directories/to:/replace:/default/list

Though I realise that still leaves open the question of the status
of the persistent directory,
