Bad string length

I'm testing snmptrapd because it appears to be crashing when receiving a
trap from an Avaya PBX.  Here is what was in the system log:

Apr 29 07:49:48 ens4 snmptrapd[98]: s8720-b.vr.vanran.com [172.30.3.3]:
Trap iso.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 = Timeticks: (23758427) 2 days, 17:59:44.27,

iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.2.8.1.4.6.1.4 = STRING: "26",
iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.2.8.1.4.6.1.6 = "", iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.2.8.1.4.6.1.26

iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.2.8.1.4.6.1.

I've simplified the trap and am trying to send it using snmptrap
#!/bin/sh
snmptrap -v 2c -c public 10.0.5.22  '' iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.1.8.1.0.3 \
        iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.2.8.2.1.1.1.5 s 'VR-S8720-A' \
        iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.2.8.1.4.6.1.18 s '1000165620' \
        iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.2.8.1.4.6.1.17 s
'FPA:00000:0428073807:0000000000::N' \
        iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.2.8.1.4.6.1.1 s "A:\"2010-04-28 07:38:07
172.30.3.56(via 172.30.3.56) TRAP, SNMP v1, community public

cmgTrapSubsystem.2 = STRING: \"HW\" cmgTrapOnBoard.2 = STRING: \"no\"
cmgTrapLocation.2 = STRING: \"001V2\" cmgHardwareFaultMask.2 =
Hex-STRING: 00 00 80  cmgPrimaryClockSource.2 = STRING: \"v2\"
cmgSecondaryClockSource.2 = \"\" cmgActiveClockSource.2 = INTEGER:
primary(1) \"" \
        iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.2.8.1.4.6.1.3 s 'CMG'


When I try to send that trap I get:

iso.3.6.1.4.1.6889.2.8.1.4.6.1.1: Value out of range (Bad string length)


I thought an octet string could be from 0-65536 octets in length?  Do I
need to specify a an option on the CLI?  It seems the Avaya PBX
"forwards" a trap from a device as a string argument to its trap.
Ugly...


Thanks,
Chris
