K.C.,

I think there is an error in one of the compilation fixups, namely that
this OID assignment (for the MODULE-IDENTITY invocation)

-- ::= { iso(1) std(0) iso8802(8802) ieee802dot1(1) ieee802dot1mibs(1) 1 }
  ::= { iso8802(8802) ieee802dot1(1) ieee802dot1mibs(1) 1 }

looks like it will yield a wrong (and illegal) OID.  I think the correct
way to fix the problem is this:

  ::= { iso std(0) iso8802(8802) ieee802dot1(1) ieee802dot1mibs(1) 1 }

i.e. just change "iso(1)" to "iso" (this is a predefined identifier of
type OID inherited from ASN.1 by SMIv2).

Also, there are some other problems that your previous passes did not catch:

% ./libsmi-0.3.1/tools/smilint -s -l 9 ./IEEE8021-PAE-MIB |& grep -v 'object identifier name .* longer than 32 characters$'
./IEEE8021-PAE-MIB:188: [4] node `dot1xPaePortReauthenticate' must be contained in at least one conformance group
./IEEE8021-PAE-MIB:1101: [4] node `dot1xAuthSessionUserName' must be contained in at least one conformance group

Hope I'm not too late with these comments.

Mike
