Russell:

Could you please send me your copy of system.c?

I was able to safely backport all of _sess_open() from snmplib/snmp_api.c 
from 5.2.1.2 from to 5.1.3 by simply copying it and also a small chunk 
from the top of snmp_api.c:

     netsnmp_ds_register_config(ASN_OCTET_STR, "snmp", "clientaddr",
                       NETSNMP_DS_LIBRARY_ID, NETSNMP_DS_LIB_CLIENT_ADDR);

These are the only places that I see 'clientaddr' mentioned...but I don't 
see a mention of the config paramter until snmp.5.conf in -current 
sources.  It occured to me that 'clientaddr' is read from snmp.conf 
instead of snmpd.conf.

Anyway, my snmpd(8) agent daemon still isn't properly sourcing traps with 
that patch applied.

Do config file statements in snmp.conf apply to all functions/code, even 
if traps are sent from snmpd(8) through shared code ...instead of 
snmptrap(1) ?
