Quite possible.
There was a major re-working of the agent trap handling shortly
before the 5.1 line was spun off, so I'm not too surprised if
various things were fixed at this point.

I note that Thomas has now updated this.
I keep intending to try and blitz some of the older bugs,
as I'm sure many of them are now fixed. I just wish there
was a sensible way to dump them for off-line working.

My *guess* is that this was probably fixed by revision 5.5 of
agent/snmp_trap.c:

Re-written internals of agent trap generation.
Work with separate v1 and v2 template PDUs, and separate
(standalone) routines to convert between them, following
RFC 2576. Hopefully a somewhat cleaner approach than before,

So I would half-expect this bug to have been fixed in 5.1.
There's certainly nothing else in the later 5.1-line changes
that looks relevant. But that is a guess, and I don't really
have the time to investigate such ancient code in any great
detail. (The 5.1 line has been out for over two years now!)

Given the scale of this revision, it would not have been
appropriate to backport it to the 5.0 line.

If it's fixed in 5.1, I'm pretty sure it'll be fixed in 5.3
and 5.3 as well. So our advice to you is to upgrade.
