While the test for net-snmp is correct, the test output is incorrect.
The AC_MSG_CHECKING text will appear on a line with no newline. Then
AC_CHECK_HEADERS comes along and spits out text on the *same* line.
Then the AC_MSG_RESULT's come on a line different from the
AC_MSG_CHECKING text, which is confusing. I've corrected this below.

Against 0.9.14.

0.9.15 does this significantly differently (so the patch doesn't apply); at least one of the changes was intended to fix that. Check the 0.9.15 version.
