ok well whether or not it's a bug may be debatable (traps aren't scheduled
so stopping the scheduler shouldn't affect them), but it sounds like the
behavior of your version may be more intuitive. maybe not. i don't know.

there seem to be a number of nuances here, and i originally intended
"moncmd stop" to control these first two:

    related to scheduling loop:

        -stopping monitors from being scheduled thus stopping the
         possibility of alerts from them

        -stopping trap timeout alerts

    not related to the scheduling loop:

        -stopping alerts from traps

        -delaying/stopping the processing of inbound traps

thoughts about the other two, or maybe more?
