Try
      mib2c   NET-SNMP-EXAMPLES-MIB::netSnmpExamples

What does that say?

No - it means that the "snmptranslate" command can find out netSnmpExamples.
Not necessarily the agent.

It's a good indication that the agent (and mib2c) *should* be able to
find out netSnmpExamples, but you must be wary of jumping to
conclusions.

No - you do *NOT* need to do that, and it won't help anyway.
Defining this object in NET-SNMP-MIB won't make any difference to
whether mib2c loads the NET-SNMP-EXAMPLES-MIB or not.  And if it
doesn't then it can't generate code for this tree - even if it can
understand the root name.

You do *NOT* need to edit any of the MIB files.
