  [Original Report]
  While mrtg works ok, on every run it produces the following warnings:

  # env LANG=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg.cfg
  Subroutine SNMP_Session::pack_sockaddr_in6 redefined at /usr/share/perl/5.14/Exporter.pm line 67.
   at /usr/share/perl5/SNMP_Session.pm line 149
  Subroutine SNMP_Session::unpack_sockaddr_in6 redefined at /usr/share/perl/5.14/Exporter.pm line 67.

  Subroutine SNMP_Session::sockaddr_in6 redefined at /usr/share/perl/5.14/Exporter.pm line 67.

  Subroutine SNMPv1_Session::unpack_sockaddr_in6 redefined at /usr/share/perl/5.14/Exporter.pm line 67.

  Subroutine SNMPv1_Session::sockaddr_in6 redefined at /usr/share/perl/5.14/Exporter.pm line 67.
   at /usr/share/perl5/SNMP_Session.pm line 608

  This happens even when "EnableIPv6: no" is present in mrtg.cfg.

  Because it's run every 5 minutes via cron, it's spamming the the user
  that ultimately gets root's cron mail.
