Using "pass" scripts and proxying

I have a situation where I'm using net-snmp to proxy snmp v3 requests to 
snmp v2c with contexts to define where to send the forwarded queries.

This part is all fine. Where I'm running into trouble is that the system 
doing the polling can't contend with interface indexes over 100. We're 
only monitoring a couple interfaces per device, but some of them have 
high indexes. I have written a pass script that can do the translation 
to a lower index number and perform the poll itself, but unfortunately 
it never gets called unless I'm querying localhost on the snmp proxy 
machine. I assume it is because in the proxy statement, you define what 
part of the tree to proxy, which currently is .1.3, so it just proxies 
it unconditionally without going through all the pass statements.

Knowing that what I'm trying to do is get a response back on the same 
OID, but a different index value, anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks...
