check_snmp quoting issue

Hi,
	I'm trying to use the new extend directive
in Net-SNMP and the symbolic OIDs literally contain
a quote. I can't get check_snmp to be satisfied with
the quotes I need to pass. I need to be able to pass
nsExtendResult."extt2" to snmpd. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp -t 3 -P 3 -H 192.168.16.11 -w 1 -c 5 -L authPriv -U XXXXXXXX -a MD5 -A XXXXXXXX -X XXXXXXXX -o nsExtendResult."extt2"
Could not open pipe: /usr/local/bin/snmpget -t 3 -r 5 -m ALL -v 3 -l authPriv -a MD5 -u XXXXXXXX -A XXXXXXXX -x DES -X XXXXXXXX  192.168.16.11:161  nsExtendResult."extt2"
