Of course it's possible - all you need to do is reproduce
the SET request that snmpusm generates.

See the code in 'apps/snmpusm.c' for details.
In particular, the block headed
    if (strcmp(argv[arg], CMD_CREATE_NAME) == 0)

It's basically just two varbinds - one to set the cloneFrom user,
and the rowStatus varbind to create the row.
The complicated bit is determining the index value to use
(which depends on the engineID and username)
