        It was used for /proc/net/snmp header printing, but
most of the items in it were moved to a different MIB (by me).
The new values are printed in a backward-compatible way, but
maintaining the old order means not using this header map.
        So, long-winded way of saying I believe it should be
removed, but I missed that when I made it obsolete. :-)
