This seems to be the following code:

int snmp_input(op, session, reqid, pdu, magic)
    int op;
    struct snmp_session *session;
    int reqid;
    struct snmp_pdu *pdu;
    void *magic;
{
    struct variable_list *vars;
    char buf[64], sbuf [10240];

    if (op == RECEIVED_MESSAGE && pdu->command == TRP_REQ_MSG){
	if (Print){
[...]
	} else {
[...]
	  sprintf (sbuf, "%s: %s Trap (%d) Uptime: %s", 
		   inet_ntoa(pdu->agent_addr.sin_addr),
		   trap_description(pdu->trap_type), pdu->specific_type,
		   uptime_string(pdu->time, buf));
[...]
	  for (vars = pdu->variables; vars; vars = vars->next_variable) {
	    /* XXX: check buffer space avail */
	    strcat (sbuf, " ");
	    sprint_variable (sbuf + strlen (sbuf),
			     vars->name, vars->name_length, vars);
	  }
	  syslog(LOG_WARNING, sbuf);
	}
[...]
}

Apparently, this code has not made its way into the UCD-SNMP and
NET-SNMP source (or the official CMU-SNMP sources).  This means that
the number of affected systems should be minimal.
