Well, it does seem like a byte order problem.  However, all of our
code should be properly testing for byte order at compilation time and
should deal with it in the code.  You haven't been modifying the code
have ya ;-)

Check the WORDS_BIGENDIAN setting in your net-snmp-config.h file to
ensure it is set right.
