First thing - the agent and client tools can still operate without the MIB
files, as long as you give the numeric OIDs.    The files are only needed
to translate a MIB object name (like 'sysUpTime') into the equivalent
numeric OID  (.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3)

   Try starting the agent with the command-line option  -m ""
to load an empty list of MIB files.

To set the default list of MIB modules to be empty, try

    ./configure --with-mibs=""   .....

To omit the MIB parsing code completely, try

    ./configure --disable-mib-loading ......
