Heh well that will teach me to belive what I read on the web without testing it myself. I can repeat your results and cant realy give a reason other than getting memory information on freebsd seems to be a bit tricky (see sysctl vm.vmtotal for more confusion, I'm still not sure what That all realy means.)
I do my memory monitoring localy (based on the scripts at http://www.ag0ny.com/graphs/) and just assumed that net-snmp would "just work". My best suggestion now would be to either ask on questions@ or on the net-snmp mailing lists.
