That's probably the case Thomas. I have not attempted to compile
something statically before on Solaris.

Good question Thomas. The hosts I need to run the agent on have a
fairly inconsistent library setup and its causing snmpd to peg cpu, exit
ungracefully, and lock up at times. On a clean machine, my compile of
snmpd works fine.

Perhaps a different approach is needed. Alternatively, I was thinking
of setting up a unique prefix (/opt/special) for example. Then, install
the shared libraries (libgcc, ssl etc) and netsnmp in /opt/special. By
doing this, I think I could prevent snmpd from seeing the broken
libraries in the default locations.

Thoughts?
