After reading a bit through the code it seems another "bug" though.

I'm sending out notifications using NotificationOriginator which includes
sysUpTime from __SNMPv2-MIB but without a smiRead() (obviously) but using
sysuptime.syntax, thus the reported value is time(). 
Or at least that is my new best guess :)

Is this a known issue and/or how to fix it?

thanks in advance,
filippo
