  Log:
  Load "libsnmp.so.0", not "libsnmp.so":
  
  	on the systems that have the problem we're working around, the
  	SNMP shared library is "libsnmp.so.0";
  
  	on those systems, there's also no "libsnmp.so" unless the user
  	has installed the UCD SNMP development package or has made a
  	symlink from "libsnmp.so" to "libsnmp.so.0" by hand, and we
  	don't want to force users to do that (some of them may be
  	sufficiently new to UNIX that they don't know how to do that);
  
  	the run-time linker, if told to load "libsnmp.so", won't
  	necessarily realize that it's the same object as "libsnmp.so.0",
  	and may load it again rather than using the already-loaded
  	object, which might not be a good idea.
