You could try to clone the Net-SNMP git repository and to build and
install the V5-7-patches branch. From the changelog:

commit 2cc9504b9bb8625b94be6cda7e60993d059cd928
Date:   Wed Oct 26 09:01:23 2011 +0200

    CHANGES: snmplib: BUG: 3428506: Fix netsnmp_gethostbyaddr()

    This patch should fix the regressions introduced by commit 85d96c4
(May 13, 2011).
