Initial Comment:
I have downloaded net-snmp 5.0.7 and am using it 
under Windows NT (Visual C++ 6.0), and I was 
getting odd results from parse_miboid.
parse_miboid("1.3.6.1.4.1", myoid); correctly 
returned 6,  parse_miboid("1.3.6.1.4.1.123", 
myoid); correctly returned 7 but if I put the string 
into a char array, it returned 8.
I think the problem is in the line:-
        while (isdigit(*buf++));
which finds that the null pointer is not a number, 
then moves onto the next character. For string 
constants this seems OK as there appear to be at 
least 2 NULL characters, but not for char []
An easy fix is to change *buf++ to *++buf as we 
are guaenteed that the current pointer is on a digit
