I don't think it matters. There is no explicit initialisation of the fd_event_manager, so you should be able to register your socket descriptors before initialising the SNMP libraries if you wish to. The registered FDs are only ever referenced by the netsnmp_external_event_info() and netsnmp_dispatch_external_events() calls, which both lie within the main agent event loop. So it's equally possible to register your socket descriptors late on in the initialisation sequence. (Or even when the agent is fully up and running, if that's what is convenient). Basically, this mechanism is fairly self-contained, so you can register the socket descriptors whenever you like.
