it's difficult to add this for all usages of Snmp class: What should the 
object do:
- create a poll thread in constructor and stop it in destructor
- create a thread only when it's necessary: if the user wants to listen 
for notifications and if an async response is outstanding.

Depending on the applications both can be good or bad.

Maybe two member functions start_poll_thread(const int select_timeout) 
and stop_poll_thread() will be the best option.
