The relocatable form of "exec" has been dropped, yes.
(i.e.   "extend {OID} {name} ....")
That's because the output produced is not legal SNMP.

The fixed location form  ("extend {name} ...") is fine,
and will continue to report results under the
UCD-SNMP-MIB::extTable.

But the "extend" structure (defined in NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB)
is much richer, and will produce consistent results, regardless
of the order of "extend" entries in the snmpd.conf file.

It's also consistent between the fixed and relocatable forms
(unlike "exec").
