For NETSNMP_DEFAULT_MIBS there's the following code in configure.in:

if test "x$PARTIALTARGETOS" = "xmingw32" -o "x$PARTIALTARGETOS" = "xmingw32msvc" -o "x$PARTIALTARGETOS" = "xcygwin"; then
# mingw32 and cygwin use ';' as the environment variable separator char
ENV_SEPARATOR=";"
NETSNMP_DEFAULT_MIBS=`echo "$NETSNMP_DEFAULT_MIBS" | $SED 's/:/;/g'`
default_mibs=`echo "$default_mibs" | $SED 's/:/;/g'`
else
ENV_SEPARATOR=":"
fi

I guess a similar approach should be taken for NETSNMP_DEFAULT_MIBDIRS.
Then, still, is $HOME/.snmp/mibs a reasonable default for the personal mib directory on Cygwin/MinGW?
