I've been asked about this off-list, so the relevant link:

"""Configuration changes made through SNMP are not synchronized to the
redundant supervisor engine. After you configure the switch through
SNMP, copy the running-config file to the startup-config file on the
active supervisor engine to trigger synchronization of the
startup-config file on the redundant supervisor engine"""

So in actual fact it's not as bad as I remembered - a "wr mem" will sync
them back up again, but to be noted I guess. Ironically, one can trigger
a "wr mem" over SNMP IIRC...
