Are you constructing the varbind list appropriate for an SNMPv2c trap?
This is *not* the same as the SNMPv1 trap format.

It also says that traps should be sent using 'send_easy_trap()' or
'send_v2trap()'
(or similar).  It's the code behind these routines that handles
converting between
v1 and v2 formats.
   If you are sending the traps directly yourself, then it's your
responsibility to
construct the trap PDU in the appropriate format.
