Robert,

The problem seems to exist as far back as FreeBSD 4.9 and 4.10.

It may well be a FreeBSD issue - I can't tell.    I am not familiar with how
the net-snmp code obtains information (presumably from the kernel).   So
it's a bit hard to know whether the problem lies in net-snmp or FreeBSD.

I have also emailed the owner of the FreeBSD net-snmp port but have not seen
a reply.
