Here's what I'm finding most confusing making some kind of sense out of all
this.
I'm having trouble relating our output to numbers generated by other
routines in the operating system.
Here's some examples - all SOlaris.

The changes to the MIB are intended to make the behaviour more
explicit - thus avoiding the potential ambiguities

I'm not sure I see the benefits of tweaking the MIB and the code to
replace
I've finished analysing the new HAL-based ucd-snmp/memory module,
and comparing it against the previous individual statistics.
There are [a couple of] areas where the code is non-trivially different:
- memTotalFree
- memSwapError{,Msg}
I offer the attached patch for consideration w
