snmp_timeout() and agentxPollInterval?

Hi,

I need to use the explicit
snmp_select_info/select/snmp_read/snmp_timeout
sequence in my agentx agent as I need to act upon requests sent through 
another fd.
I'd like to also monitor the connection to the snmpd using the 
agentxPollInterval mechanism.

When I use agent_check_and_process(), it will poll the master agent in 
regular intervals, if I use the explicit sequence, it does not.
The source code of agent_check_and_process() shows that it calls 
run_alarms() at the end, a function which is not externally available!

Is there a profound reason why snmp_timout does not call run_alarm()?

Other than call agent_check_and_process(0) when having handled my 
private fd, how can I handle a private fd _and_ call run_alarm()?

Josef
