snmp agent as an agentx subagent

I'm sending this to both the ucd-snmp and agent++ email list because I
really need feedback from both.

I built the ucd agent as follows:

./configure --with-openssl=/home/mydir/snmp --with-mib-modules="host target
ucd-snmp/diskio agentx"

Now when using it as a master agentx agent and another agentx subagent has
implemented lets say the target mib, how would the ucd agent resolves this
situation.

If we used it as a subagent and the agent++ as a master agent. The agent++
has the (snmp, target, community and notification groups), would this
results in a any interaction problems (especially for those who already
tested this scenario).

Is their any advantages of building the ucd agent as either a agentx master
or agentx client, or as supporting both configuration.

The thing is that I prefer to use the agent++ as an agentx master to use it
encryption algorithm and user management. But in the same time I need the
implementation of MIB-II, Host Resources and Disk IO monitoring groups found
in ucd agent.

Please advise...
