I'm a bit late to the party with this thread, but I ran into the
same exact issue on FreeBSD -- and this isn't a new "problem". The
old behavior (no noise) is present in net-snmp 5.5 as well, so what I
did was whipped up a patch to quiet down things by restoring the old
behavior (sort of):
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3362233&group_id=12694&atid=312694
. The problem is that the requirements defined in the original code,
and the return values are contradictory for some SMIs. So what I did
was extended hardraker's patch to catch actual MIB parsing errors in
parse().
   The issue may need to be resolved a different way in the future,
but this at least mutes the noise, which matches pre-5.7 behavior, and
catches errors during the MIB parsing process in a proper manner.
Thanks,
