Hi Alex,
 Thanks for sharing this info. I tried to get the diff and it
complains about "V5-7-patches".

git diff v5.7.1 V5-7-patches snmplib/snmp_api.c > fix-5.7.1.patch
fatal: ambiguous argument 'V5-7-patches': unknown revision or path not
in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions

git branch
* master

Thanks & Regards,
Sampath
