In fact, the 2 documents are informational.

I checked it and the client MIB is Ok, in the server MIB it seems that 
the RFC ed note is incorrect and [DYNSERV] should be replaced by 
[DYNCLNT]. The references in both of the drafts are correct, with the 
exception of the RFC ed note in the server MIB.

Not sure what MIB Rx review is. I compliled the MIB with Smilent.

http://www.ops.ietf.org/mib-security.html contains preformatted text for 
the security section and that text was put in the draft. See the text on 
that webpage in the section "-- else if there are no read-write objects 
in your MIB module". The text in the draft is more or less a copy/paste 
from that webpage. Also the other Radius MIBs like 
draft-ietf-radext-rfc2618bis-03.txt are also following the guidelines on 
the mentioned webpage.

regards,
Stefaan
