The latter. libsmi complains about that and other things:

$ smilint ./ibmNetDispatcherMIB.02 
./ibmNetDispatcherMIB.02:15: date specification `0007310000Z' contains an
illegal value
./ibmNetDispatcherMIB.02:33: date specification `0107110000Z' contains an
illegal value
./ibmNetDispatcherMIB.02:845: identifier `no_exec' must not contain an
underscore
./ibmNetDispatcherMIB.02:585: index element `ssAddr' of row
`indSrvrStatEntry' must have a size restriction
./ibmNetDispatcherMIB.02:1396: index element `ascAddr' of row
`indAllSrvrsCnfgEntry' must have a size restriction
./ibmNetDispatcherMIB.02:1466: last subidentifier assigned to
`indMibNotificationsGroup' may not be zero
