It's not really possible to get the agent to do this sort of
redirection automatically.
    But it's quite feasible to register two or three OID regions
that cover the same underlying data, and write the handler routines
to report this accordingly.

For example, both 'mibII/at.c' and 'mibII/ip.c' make use of the
same v4-style routine 'var_at' to implement the Address Translation
and IP Net-to-Media tables.

And my new 'nsExtension' group has three tables - one configuration
and two output, that all work with the same underlying data lists.

But in both cases, the linkage is made by the programmer.
The agent doesn't know (or care) that these tables are connected.
