The   '--with-mibs'   configure option is used to control which MIB files
are loaded by default by the MIB parser.  I.e. which object names are
understood by the client tools.
   It has no effect on what code is included within the agent - i.e.
what MIB values the agent will report.

To control this, you need to use the configure option  '--with-mib-modules'

However, following a quick scan of the code, I'm not at all sure
that the Net-SNMP agent implements this particular MIB.
There's some code for it within 'mibII/ipv6.c',  but it's never
actually registered.
And there doesn't seem to be any mention of these objects in the newer
re-writes.
   So my suspicion is that nobody has ever written the necessary code
to support this MIB.   Which is why the agent doesn't report this information.
