"extend" is basically the same as "exec" - it just uses a slightly
different MIB structure. ("pass_persist" works on a very different
model, so don't try to think of this in the same way).

Try setting up an entry
extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.255.3 /usr/bin/perl /data/snmp/bin/pkgvers.pl
and then walk the two OIDs. You should be able to spot the similarities
fairly easily.

This feels very similar to the "Installed Software" group of the
Host Resources MIB. Does that not work for you? (Or is the
information insufficient for your needs).

No idea - suck it and see.
