I've got the compile, but your right, its probably not got crypto in it
right now.

I need to add an already written extension (that uses AgentX),
but the AIX daemon only supports SMUX and DPI.
So I figured using Net-SNMP was the easiest way.
But since then I found I needed to compile in SMUX into Net-snmp (shoudln't
be a problem)
but then the AIX (important?) stuff can only get in via DPI (which Net-SNMP
doesn't support)
Heck, I didn't even know DPI existed till yesterday.  :-(
