Yes.

The snmp library handles this automatically.

I have a sneaking suspicion that they are not.

  The retries/timeout processing uses the relevant fields from the
netsnmp_session structure.  (See create_trap_session2() in agent_trap.c)
The snmpTargetAddrTimeout and snmpTargetAddrRetryCount objects
manipulate the relevant fields in the targetAddrTable_struct structure.
(See write_snmpTargetAddrTimeout()/write_snmpTargetAddrRetryCount()
 in mibgroup/target/target.c)

I can't immediately spot anything that links these two structures together.
So I strongly suspect that the snmpTargetAddrTable values are ignored.
Feel free to experiment and confirm/reject this.
