You don't need this anymore
02-path-separator.patch
if you build net-snmp with
export ENV_SEPARATOR=":"
And maybe now they'll accept a patch so that building on cygwin
doesn't require an evar. I think "gcc -mno-cygwin ..." might still
have been supported when I tried to get it changed and the best they'd
do was an evar when building.
Is 06-winstub.patch necessary? Necessary if all you're using is the
command line tools?
The changelog has this
commit fda421625d20d8f8201479fa7f33c257fdc72015

Cygwin: getnetent() / getnetbyaddr() build fix
Recent versions of Cygwin have prototypes but no implementation for
these functions. Hence avoid that the Cygwin prototypes conflict
with the implementation.
In other words, if I'm using just the snmp{get,set} command line
tools, should I be applying this patch?
Thanks,
Lee
