[hobbit] hobbit + bb-xsnmp.pl

[Deal, Richard]

In case this can help anyone else I have included Dan's patch and all
the various fixes I have for bb-xsnmp.pl and put it up to deadcat:
http://www.deadcat.net/viewfile.php?fileid=929
The 1.78_beta (my main starting point) was from Ben Pitzer who has done
a lot of work getting the script working.  I have not been able to get
back in touch with him though as my last contact was over a year ago.
(just want to give credit were credit is due).

I hope others find this as useful as I have.
Butch
