Re: multiple subagent with same set of oid.

If there's interest, I have a patch that allows communities of the form
"community@context" to be treated by the snmp agent as separate community
and context values, eliminating the need to define each combination as a
valid community, and use com2sec to do the mapping.

I hadn't upstreamed it previously because it would change the behavior for
anyone who had an "@" in their community string.  Obviously giving it a
configuration file entry to turn this behavior on would probably address
that concern.
