problem above still to be solved

My result is below (linux).

I'm using RH8 which comes with 5.0.9 installed. I don't have an easy
way to reinstall it if I install over it.
But in fact, if I just make install then I don't install over it, but
install somewhere else and things are very confused cause the search
path finds 5.0.9 first. So I thought it more reasonable to uninstall
and use it this way.

# ./net-snmp-5.1.3.1/apps/snmptrapd -Dread_config -C -f -c
/tmp/snmptrapd.conf -M /root/net-snmp-5.1.3.1/mibs/

and the output

which, incidentally is not the result of calling /tmp/snmptraphandler

I'm hoping someone familiar with the code will recognize what's going
on here and clarify.
