Never mind. "autoconf"s way of dealing with include file and library
directories other than the system standard ones needs a bit of an enema
- it has specialized stuff for finding the X directories, but there
really needs to be a standard way of dealing with that for *any*
package, adding appropriate "-I" and "-L" flags *and* whatever "-R" or
whatever flags are also needed by the particular OS you're on.
When I get home, I'll try to reproduce the problem I saw with UCD SNMP,
and see if I can somehow bludgeon our autoconf script into doing the
right thing, whatever that might be.
