OK...it turns out I did have another snmp package installed. I ran the 
uninstaller on that.

There were still a bunch of files left over in /bin, /lib and /usr, so I 
deleted those manually. Just to be really sure, I also ran make clean, make 
distclean and deleted the unpacked directory. Anything else I might do before I 
unpack and start over?

Thanks.
