So:

	1) what does

		egrep snmp_set_suffix_only /usr/include/ucd-snmp/*.h

	   report?

	2) what does

		nm -po /usr/lib/libsnmp.* | egrep snmp_set_suffix_only

	   report?

If you got rid of it in its entirety, it'd probably help, but it's
overkill - just do

	./configure --disable-snmp

to build without the SNMP library.

However, my goal here isn't just to make it possible for you to build
Ethereal on your machine, it's to keep this from happening to anybody
else, so I still want to see the output of the commands I supplied above
- I suspect that somehow snmp_set_suffix_only isn't getting #defined
when "packet-snmp.c" is being compiled and, as there's no
"snmp_set_suffix_only()" library routine in UCD SNMP 4.1.1, just a
macro, the link is failing because the code that refers to
"snmp_set_suffix_only()" is compiling into a call to a routine named
"snmp_set_suffix_only()" rather than being expanded into a call to
"ds_set_int()" with the appropriate arguments.
