Recompiling net-snmpd is not really an option: we have a ton of 
machines to keep upgraded so unless it is an absolute must-have 
bugfix, we can't be in the game of rolling our own packages.

Doesn't seem to be fixed, eg: 

./snmpdiskspace.monitor --config /etc/mon/snmpdiskspace.cf --list 
herndon-db001

Here's the corresponding output from snmpfreespace.monitor (the bash 
script I attached to my last message): 

./snmpfreespace.monitor -p99 herndon-db001
herndon-db001
