Freebsd 6.2 + net-snmp: not listing all interfaces

Hello!

I've got a FreeBSD 6.2 server running some tunnels and wanted to start 
keeping statistics. I installed net-snmp and am able to poll the system 
successfully however not all the interfaces are being picked up.

I have 2 GIGE NICs, and then 500+ GIF interfaces. I always get the GIGE 
NICs, but after my first snmpwalk I noticed I was only getting 4 of the 
GIF interfaces, and not in any particular order (2,6,11,18). All of the 
GIF interfaces are up with working connectivity so I'm perplexed as to why 
only a few were picked up. Hours later I revisited this and on a new 
snmpwalk, I got only 4 GIF interfaces again, but a different set 
(5,9,13,16). I hadn't changed anything in snmpd.conf, nor restarted any 
services. All of the tunnels are still up and operational and passing 
data.

Has anyone ever encountered this sort of situation?

I'm using NET-SNMP version:  5.3.1

Below is interface output from an snmpwalk against the server. If more 
information is needed I can happily supply:

IF-MIB::ifNumber.0 = INTEGER: 526
IF-MIB::ifIndex.1 = INTEGER: 1
IF-MIB::ifIndex.2 = INTEGER: 2
IF-MIB::ifIndex.3 = INTEGER: 3
IF-MIB::ifIndex.4 = INTEGER: 4
IF-MIB::ifIndex.5 = INTEGER: 5
IF-MIB::ifIndex.6 = INTEGER: 6
IF-MIB::ifIndex.7 = INTEGER: 7
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1 = STRING: bge0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2 = STRING: bge1
IF-MIB::ifDescr.3 = STRING: lo0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.4 = STRING: gif5
IF-MIB::ifDescr.5 = STRING: gif9
IF-MIB::ifDescr.6 = STRING: gif13
IF-MIB::ifDescr.7 = STRING: gif16
IF-MIB::ifType.1 = INTEGER: ethernetCsmacd(6)
IF-MIB::ifType.2 = INTEGER: ethernetCsmacd(6)
IF-MIB::ifType.3 = INTEGER: softwareLoopback(24)
IF-MIB::ifType.4 = INTEGER: 240
IF-MIB::ifType.5 = INTEGER: 240
IF-MIB::ifType.6 = INTEGER: 240
IF-MIB::ifType.7 = INTEGER: 240
IF-MIB::ifMtu.1 = INTEGER: 1500
IF-MIB::ifMtu.2 = INTEGER: 1500
IF-MIB::ifMtu.3 = INTEGER: 16384
IF-MIB::ifMtu.4 = INTEGER: 1280
IF-MIB::ifMtu.5 = INTEGER: 1280
IF-MIB::ifMtu.6 = INTEGER: 1280
IF-MIB::ifMtu.7 = INTEGER: 1280

Cheers,
