If you send a request using SNMPv2c (or SNMPv3), then this means that
Counter64-syntax objects are available - yes.  With SNMPv1, they'd simply
be omitted.

   But the type of a particular MIB object is fixed - if it's defined in the MIB
file as Unsigned32, then it will *always* be a 32-bit value, regardless of
the version of SNMP that you're using.
  If it's defined in the MIB file as Counter64, then it will *always*
be a 64-bit
value  (and SNMPv1 requests will need to skip it).

What is the code that implements/registers this particular object, and
what is the definition in the MIB file?
