All of what you are describing should basically never happen.  So, I'm
rather confused.  /usr/share/snmp/snmpd.conf should never be
overwritten unless you specified that as the storage location when you
ran configure (overriding the default /var/net-snmp directory it
suggested).

If this is in an embedded environment, I'm afraid I suspect the
compiler doing strange things with either dynamic libraries or, um,
shared memory, or um, something else...
