NNOOOOOO!!!!!

The Net-SNMP package builds its list of default MIBs based on the
version, the ones it is going to install, the ones configured by the
user for the package, ...  you should not override this default in
your application (IMHO, of course).  If the user wants to, that is
fine of course.  But there is no reason that ethereal itself should be
specifying the default list of MIBs.
