Does your custom MIB work if you define it as attached?
If it does it might be a libsmi bug.

There are more (multiple) recent versions of libsmi than 0.4.5, why was 0.4.5 choosen (perhaps because it was the one that was available at the time of introduction).
Should a newer version of the library be considered? This might help with some of the crashes, it will not however address the double free calls (on Windows).
