You need to look in packages/net/snmp/agent/mibgroups/mibII/inferfaces.c

The offending bit of code is 

    case IFOUTUCASTPKTS:
        long_ret = ifp->if_opackets - ifp->if_omcasts;
        return (unsigned char *) &long_ret;
 
This is returning the number of multicast packets output!
It should return if_opackets.

Sorry, i cannot help here. I reimplemented the system group so that i
could get/set values from flash etc. Look in the same directory as the
interfaces.c.
