The Net-SNMP libraries should certainly be compatible within a single
major release
line (i.e. 5.3.1 with 5.3.0.1 or 5.3 libraries).

We've tried to keep the library APIs backward compatible from one
major release to the next, but I wouldn't like to promise that the
library binaries will necessarily be backward compatible.
Particularly not a significant jump such as 5.0.x to 5.3.x.
   You could *try* adding a symbolic link from one library to the
other, and see if the binaries still work.  But it would be safer to
fully install the new version instead.
