Since no one else responded to this thread, I'm assuming I'm the only
one using this feature... at least on *this* list.  :-)  For what it's
worth, v0.1.3 appears to work as expected.  I've been able to narrow
down some performance problems on one of my systems.  (It appears to be
dropping packets when traffic exceeds ~120Kpkts/sec, vs. its near twin
which seems fine at ~190Kpkts/sec).

It'd still be nice to get bsnmp-ucd into the stock ports tree, though,
as I think other people might eventually benefit from it.  Should that
request be done through a PR?

As always, thanks in advance!
