You can very easily control a) the path b) the owner of that path ->
not PHP bug.

I agree this is a regression; you see the spam similarly in the httpd
error_log at each shutdown, if it *can't* create the snmpapp.conf since
it's not running as root (at least using the net-snmp default paths in
Fedora Core).
That looks like a good solution, except it will inhibit *reading* the
config data as well, which might not be desired? I'm not familiar with
this area at all.

After much reading on this, I found the problem to be the
snmp_shutdown() call added in php 4.3.11. The fix for the
errors this is twofold
a) modify php to include
netsnmp_ds_set_boolean(NETSNMP_DS_LIBRARY_ID,
NETSNMP_DS_LIB_DONT_PERSIST_STATE, 1);
in php startup, so the newly added snmp_shutdown call
won't try to write data.
-AND-
b) update to net-snmp-5.2.1 which recognizes the above
call.

I disagree with the "its net-snmp's fault" response. How can it be
net-snmp's problem when php 4.3.10 built with the exact same net-snmp
within a couple of hours of building 4.3.11 does not exhibit the
problem of trying to write to /var/net-snmp???
Isn't it more likely that there was some change php's use of net-snmp
between 4.3.10 and 4.3.11 that triggered this change in behavior?

This is not any PHP bug to fix, complain to the net-snmp people about
this. There might be some configuration options in the snmp.conf &
friends to control this behaviour..
