sysUpTime is specified in an IETF document and thus, no, we can't just
"change it".  Managers are supposed to be smart enough that when they
see a sysUpTime wrap they should deal appropriately with counters and
treat it as a discontinuity.

What exactly is your problem?  Are you just looking to see how long
your device is up and you don't want to think its been reset when it
hasn't?
