The MIB in RFC 1493 is correct. Looks like HP screwed them up as a
special service to their customers.

The libsmi distribution includes all RFC MIBs (fixed where
necessary). I strongly suggest to use these MIBs rather than
any vendor hacked MIBs that claim to be RFC MIBs.
[But to be fair: The quality of MIBs is slowly improving. Things were
worse a few years ago. Our hope is that serious open source MIB
parsers like libsmi help to make these problems become history.]
