Nope, it's a lot older than that.
There was a line that said:
if (len > 16) { *buf++ = '\n'; *buf = 0; }
part of sprint_hexstring.
eg
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/net-snmp/net-snmp/snmplib/mib.c?rev=1.

that I suspect has pretty much always been there.
First occurence of the code is here
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/net-snmp/net-snmp/snmplib/mib.c?rev=1.

and I suspect that was an import of patch code so it may have been there
forever as well.
Or am I missing something?
