Hi Dave,

I am glad to say that I have fixed the issue of library crashing due to
erroneous MIBs or any parse error in MIB and I have done it within a day.

Please let me know how to submit the fix/patch now.

I must say here that it is really an amazing learning experience and an
ultimate proud feeling that comes within yourself after finding and fixing
such typical issues.

I would love to be the part of Coders of Open source libraries in future
also.

Thanks for the motivation.

Regards
Gaurav Chaturvedi
