Edit the source code /usr/local/share/perl5/Net/SNMP/Message.pm and find "sub _process_counter64" in version 3.0.1 it is on line 1650 of the code. You want to comment out the if statement which generates the error and returns, so just comment out the code with # as below, lines 1655 to 1657 have been commented out.

1654 # Verify the SNMP version
1655 #if ($this->{_version} == SNMP_VERSION_1) {
1656 # return $this->_error('The Counter64 type is not supported in SNMPv1');

That's it, run your NMIS update on the node in question, this will verify the code compiles and that NMIS works and should solve your problem, if you get crazy Perl errors, restore your backup and try the edit again.
If the perl Library is updated this change will be lost and you will need to do it again.
