I don't actually use SNMP with mod_php4 but I've been building php4 with
SNMP support fo a while on a veriety of machines by simply deleting the
following lines:
echo "SNMP is DISABLED for now. Ignoring." >/dev/stderr
;;
\"nothing\")
I see no reason why it should be disabled other than a long time ago
SNMP was broken. I wasn't aware of the NO_ZEROLENGTH_COMMUNITY issue.
I believe enable-ucd-snmp-hack also only applies to very old versions of
ucd-snmp and php.
If nobody else is doing it I can send-pr a fix for the above issue as
well as enabling support for pdflib3 which works fine.
