Scott,
Did you manage to figure out an answer for this?
Not yet. I can poll snmp without error from the commandline, but get timeouts almost every run of mailscanner-mrtg. I am about ready to disable the snmp tests in mrtg until I can figure it out. I am getting tired of having my servers nag me all day.
Since you asked, are you seeing the same thing?
Yup, ever since servers upgraded to 4.5.. something like:
Timeout: No Response from localhost:161 . . .
Works as expected from the command line though.

I just installed the unstable 0.11.0 and it seems to have cleared up. Since unstable is near to 2 years old, it can't be that unstable, but we'll see.
Nevermind. It just slowed it down to less than 1 per hour.
I got it to stop by creating \etc\sysconfig\snmpd.options with the following;
-------snip-------
OPTIONS="-LS 4 d -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -a"
-------snip-------
I guess the default startup options for snmp daemon cause excessive logging, and can add delays to the responses. You can read what I ran across here: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.centos.general/39531
