Summary: Misuse of ipstat.ips_fragtimeout

Initial Comment:
In the current CVS snapshot of
`agent/mibgroup/mibII/ip.c' (revision 1.44) is the
following code:

	case IPREASMTIMEOUT:
#if STRUCT_IPSTAT_HAS_IPS_FRAGTIMEOUT
				long_return = ipstat.ips_fragtimeout;
#else
				long_return = IPFRAGTTL;
#endif
			        return (u_char *) &long_return;

If I understand things correctly (and I may not),
`ipstat.ips_fragtimeout' counts the number of fragments
that have timed out.  But the `ip' group object
`ipReasmTimeout' is the timeout value, not the number
of packets that have actually timed out.  (Right?)

If this is true, then the code should always refer to
IPFRAGTTL, even if `ipstat.ips_fragtimeout' exists.

But I could be wrong.
