Is there a way to tell mib2c to handle the SEQUENCE entry in my MIB?
It just stopped when it reached:
ip3DevTblEntry ::= SEQUENCE {

(BTW, I'm using net-snmp 5.4.1, I should have stated that in original
message)

My mib *is* structured to deal with multiple devices, or at least it did in
the past.
The problem is that our existing code was for UCD snmpd, and doesn't compile
into net-snmp (even when I change headers to use the ucd syntax, though I
may well be "doing it wrong", since I didn't write the original modules).
