Hmmm... It looks like the two systems I had this trouble with _both_
have stray $PREFIX/lib/libsnmp.so.4 files that were not cleaned up
when I removed an ancient ucd-snmp on the system and went to
net-snmp. I had assumed it was part of net-snmp, but it is not. I
cleaned out the cruft and the net-snmp dependency built fine.
Not sure how both machines got messed up, but it made me assume it was
trouble with the port. Looks like this PR can be closed up. Sorry for
the bother. (Although in checking this all out, I've found some files
net-snmp installs that don't make the +CONTENTS. Next PR... ;)
