I'd expect this to display "Counter64", since that's the underlying data type.
"CounterBasedGauge64" is simply a Textual Convention, to amend the
expected behaviour of such objects.  It's not really a separate type, so
the low-level SNMP library doesn't know anything about it.  Such varbinds
will be treated as the underlying type - i.e. Counter64

That would be my expectation, anyway.
