I just checked it on my system, after applying Kari Tiirikainen's
patches to the SNMP and COPS dissectors:

	gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.   -I. -I./wiretap 
	    -D_U_="__attribute__((unused))" -Wall -W -g -O2 -I. -I./wiretap
	    -I/usr/local/include/gtk-1.2 -I/usr/local/include/glib-1.2
	    -I/usr/local/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -c packet-cops.c
	packet-cops.c:49: ucd-snmp/ucd-snmp-config.h: No such file or directory
	packet-cops.c:50: ucd-snmp/asn1.h: No such file or directory
	packet-cops.c:51: ucd-snmp/snmp_api.h: No such file or directory
	packet-cops.c:52: ucd-snmp/snmp_impl.h: No such file or directory
	packet-cops.c:53: ucd-snmp/mib.h: No such file or directory
	packet-cops.c:54: ucd-snmp/default_store.h: No such file or directory
	packet-cops.c:55: ucd-snmp/read_config.h: No such file or directory
	packet-cops.c:56: ucd-snmp/tools.h: No such file or directory

I.e., I now have to use "--enable-usr-local" whenever I configure, as
that's where UCD SNMP is installed.

I think that might increase the number of "why isn't this building?"
questions on the mailing lists; documenting it might help, but people
don't always RTFRM after they download the source....
