i did a bit more poking around and discovered NetSNMP::TrapReceiver
NAME
NetSNMP::TrapReceiver - Embedded perl trap handling for Net-SNMP's
snmptrapd
ABSTRACT
The NetSNMP::TrapReceiver module is used to register perl subroutines
into the Net-SNMP snmptrapd process.

"man NetSNMP::TrapReceiver" has a detailed example. it looks as if you
could write a simple perl routine which would look at the oid and then
convert a snmp trap into a mon trap, all from within the snmptrapd
process. that sounds like the beauty way to go.
