That particular example doesn't crash for me, but I have experienced
the same abort() when misusing "Tnm::mib format", e.g.

% Tnm::mib format RowStatus active
illegal value for integer enumeration
Abort (core dumped)

so it seems likely that if you have an agent that e.g. returns an
octet-string where a MIB says an enumeration is required that you'll
get this error.

One workaround might be to not load any MIBs (set tnm(mibs) "") so
that scotty doesn't try to handle the enumeration for you. Of course,
it'd be nice if this error condition caused something other than an
abort(), too =)
