I don't see how this patch would address this issue. Both before and after this
patch, the size of the var will be sizeof(long). As near as I can tell, what
this patch actually does is make sure that, if a value has the size of an int
and that value is supposed to be unsigned, the value is interpreted as
unsigned.
The real problem is that the old api uses snmp_set_var_value, not
snmp_set_var_value (which is where Radek's patch is), and snmp_set_var_value
doesn't do any validation on sizes. I'm looking into that and should have a
patch today or tomorrow...
