If such a structure can be read, great. But it isn't necessary. The code takes
care of using a 32 bit counter and watching for it to wrap, and updating the
hc counters.

as Dave said, ignore mibII, except as a reference for how the old code got the
32bit values. Really, you could just cut-n-paste that code into the right
places in the new solaris if-mib/data_access functions, and it should just
work.

If you have an IRC client, come pester me in the net-snmp irc channel. You'll
get much more timelier responses there.
