I meant to remove the tests 47, 48 and 49 from the standard test runs
and to build a separate test "package" which checks what mib-II
variables are available for any platform. Leaving those tests where they
are today means that you get errors in running those tests even if it is
completely ok that the one or other mib-II variable is not implemented
for the platform in question.

And when using dist/nsb-package for building binary tarballs for any
net-snmp version those tests will be called by default. And since they
"fail", the building process will be aborted due to that...

When and if this test package is set up I think it would be a good idea
to not only test more or less all mib-II variables during these tests
but although all host-mib variables (and maybe other standard mib's as
well).

The result of this test package might be a sort of protocol showing
which mib variables are implemented for the platform the tests were
running on.

I hope I could explain in enough detail what my intention was. If not
please let me know.
