hm, i finally found some time to do some printf-debugging. Left the
failing run, right one not failing:

                                          ...

Cross-checking with the MIBs showed that those labels are used in the
MIBs:
  SNMPv2-TC.txt
  TUNNEL-MIB.txt
  SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB.txt
  IP-FORWARD-MIB.txt

As soon as i moved SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB.txt out of the mibs directory
the spine binary didn't crash anymore. Moved it back and spine started
core dumping again on every other run. This is really odd. I'm certainly
no net-snmp wizard, but could the MIB-file really be _that_ screwd up?
Is there a syntax check for MIB-files, could this still be a problem in
the libnetsnmp or is this just a coincidence?

As far as i can tell the shutdown_snmp in spine occurs only on shut-
down of spine.

Thanks & Regards,
