Subject: $snmpd_flush_cache for Net-SNMP ports/net-mgmt/net-snmp/files/snmpd.sh.in ?

Good call on the $snmpd_pidfile=
Another useful flag would be an optional pre_start() to blow away the
Exec cache (which lingers after the process dies without documentation)
Basically if you're writing a lot of your own passthrough OIDs and one
of them fails to exec, a simple restart of SNMP should be enough to
flush out:
+start_precmd=snmpd_precmd
+snmpd_precmd () {
+ if checkyesno snmpd_flush_cache; then
+ rm -rvf /var/net-snmp/.snmp-exec-cache
fi

No problem from me. I'm preparing for 5.3.1 upgrade in my local.
This will bump shlib version, so I'll do it after 6.2R with your
patch.
