Thanks for your detailed bug report.

Fixed in my sources. Note however, if you configure a USEC session
(which does not have the notion of a community string) and you
configure a community string afterwards, you will still get a SNMPv1
session handle as a default. So in this case you should use the
-version option to make sure you get the desired result.

Fixed as you suggested. Thanks,
