- The asyncore-based transport subsystem extended to support POSIX

  sendmsg()/recvmsg() based socket communication what could be used,
  among other things, in the context of a transparent SNMP proxy
  application. Technically, the following features were brought
  into pysnmp with this update:
  * Sending SNMP packets from a non-local IP address
  * Receiving IP packets for non-local IP addresses
  * Responding to SNMP requests from exactly the same IP address
    the query was sent to. This proves to be useful when listening
    on both primary and secondary IP interfaces.
