This is a bad idea if for no other reason that running Quagga's
built-in SNMP daemon would prevent somebody from running the real
one, perhaps with additional MIBs.

I do understand the nice notion of having things all-in-one, but I believe
it comes at too high a cost in lost modularity.

Doing this via an SMUX plugin is really, really the right way to do this.
