net-snmp 5.7.1 RPMs for CentOS-5?

I'm trying to find net-snmp 5.7.1 RPMs for x86_64 CentOS-5, does anyone 
know of any?  (Or Scientific-5, or RHEL-5 or (and I shudder) OEL-5...)

I've tried the usual rpm-find, pbone, Google, and while I find RPMs for 
F15+ they do not work well either to install or to 'rpmbuild --rebuild' 
due to missing/uninstallable deps caused by CentOS-5 being very old 
and/or newer distro releases renaming and/or splitting packages.  I also 
see that CentOS-6 is only at 5.5 and I don't see net-snmp in EPEL at 
all.  Am I missing something?

We can get it to *build* just fine, it's the RPMs that are tricky, but 
my production policy is; *use the package system*, that's why it's 
there!  I've tried to build RPMs myself, but I've run into problems 
because the CentOS-5 net-snmp 5.3.2 spec file a) has 116 patches and b) 
is substantially different from both the .../dist/net-snmp.spec and the 
other spec files I've looked at (F15,16, etc.).

I can get the .../dist/net-snmp.spec in the tarball to build, but that 
does not do things "The Red Hat Way" and I need as drop-in a replacement 
as possible for init, config and script reasons.  Also, I have to 
install my result using 'rpm --no-deps' for missing Perl module reasons. 
  I don't care about the Perl stuff (though it's a nice-to-have) and I'm 
obviously doing something wrong with the '--without-perl' stuff because 
then I can't get it to build right.

By the way, the reason I require the upgrade is that my QA folks find 
that anything older than 5.7.1 sometimes forwards traps twice.  I 
haven't isolated that particular bug either, though I've seen a few 
possibilities, else I'd try to backport the patch to the stock CentOS-5 
version.  I also know I need to migrate to CentOS-6 and that's on the 
radar but it's a ways out and I need to stop forwarding duplicate traps 
sooner than that.  And that uses net-snmp 5.5 anyway, so it's not that 
big a help.  Though probably the F15 or F16 RPMs would be happier there.

So is there really no one building and using net-snmp 5.7.1 on CentOS-5? 
  Or have I simply looked in the wrong place or missed something (sorry 
if so)?

Thanks,
JP
