All regression tests pass on Linux. Most of the regression tests but not 
all of them work correctly on other platforms. Porting these tests to 
MinGW is challenging because the path syntax used by the MSYS shell 
(/c/msys/...) differs from the path syntax used by the MSYS C library 
open() function (c:\msys\...). If you search for if [ "x$OSTYPE" = 
"xmsys" ] in testing/ you will see that it took a significant effort to 
port the test scripts to MinGW.

If a test fails the first step is to figure out whether the root cause 
is in the Net-SNMP code or in the test script. Analyzing this usually 
starts with examining the files under /tmp/snmp-test-... Rerunning a 
test script with SNMP_VERBOSE=1 added to the environment may help.
