Summary: "make test" fails if port 8756/udp is busy

Initial Comment:
In testing/TESTCONF.sh (5.3.dev) the UDP port to start
snmpd on is hardcoded to

SNMP_SNMPD_PORT="8765"

"make test" will fail miserably if this port is busy on
localhost. It should at least give an appropriate error
message or, better, choose another one until it finds
one that works. This would also allow multiple
invocations of "make test" on the same host.
