UCD SNMP can depend on so many different system libraries it's pretty hard 
to design a reliable configure test. We don't want to bring in many 
libraries that we don't need to since that can cause other problems. Also, 
dynamic libraries should have implicit dependencies, so this sort of thing 
isn't necessary if you have dynamic snmp libraries.

I guess it would be nice if the net-snmp folks provided a configure test 
themselves, since they're the ones who would have some idea of what it 
could depend on.
