I'm a little concerned that Thomas seems to think this is already fixed, but
Dave has checked in a fix. I tend to avoid the v3 stuff when I can, so I just
want to see if some double checking is called for?
I'm referring to Wes' fixes discussed in this thread:
http://groups.google.com/group/mailing.unix.net-snmp-coders/browse_thread/thread/ffa05c3b7c07d9e7/1062c3379e472706
I *thought* these patches fixed those kind of problems. Didn't they?
