[AGENT++] Intermittent core dumps in MibLeaf::get_oid

[Jochen Katz]

Hi,

without more details (sample code) only some hints:
- If you can disable threads, recompile everything without threads and
see what happens. If it then crashes always or never it's a thread problem.
- Look at the call stack with a debugger and check if all objects are valid.

Regards,
  Jochen
