Embedded perl is on my TODO list for 5.3. However, i'd like to have snmpd with
embedded perl as an alternative to snmpd without it. As perl is a pretty large
package (including the necessary modules), i don't like to require it just for
getting snmpd support. In particular if snmpd runs on an embedded device
(like firewall or router) which uses a flash device as internal disk.

Additionally, at least with perl 5.8.8-4, compilation fails with:

snmp_perl.c:88:2: error: #error embedded perl broken
make[1]: *** [snmp_perl.lo] Fehler 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ul03074/net-snmp-5.2.2/agent'
make: *** [subdirs] Fehler 1

Thanks,
Jochen
