Thanks Dave.
The only other way I can think of is using netsnmp_variable_list instead of
netsnmp_pdu and calling snmp_varlist_add_var() instead of
snmp_pdu_add_variable(). Do you think that would work?
I am not sure if I can simply call the function send_v2trap() to send the
notification, because how would the function know the target address?
Right now my build environment is broken, so it'd be a couple of hours before I
fix that and make these changes and recompile to see if it is working.
Thanks much for your help.

Are you constructing the varbind list appropriate for an SNMPv2c trap?
This is *not* the same as the SNMPv1 trap format.

It also says that traps should be sent using 'send_easy_trap()' or
'send_v2trap()'
(or similar). It's the code behind these routines that handles
converting between
v1 and v2 formats.
If you are sending the traps directly yourself, then it's your
responsibility to
construct the trap PDU in the appropriate format.
