On 8.0p2 amd64, I actually get:

host/hr_system.c: In function 'var_hrsys':
host/hr_system.c:290: warning: passing argument 4 of 'sysctl' from 
incompatible pointer type
host/hr_system.c: In function 'count_users':
host/hr_system.c:617: error: 'struct utmpx' has no member named 'ut_name'


But if I change:

.endfor
.if ${OSVERSION} >= 900007
         ${REINPLACE_CMD} -e 's!utmp_p->ut_name!utmp_p->ut_user!' 
${WRKSRC}/agent/mibgroup/host/hr_system.c
.endif

to ".if ${OSVERSION} >= 800076"

I then get similar errors to yours:

./.libs/libnetsnmpmibs.so: undefined reference to `setutxent'
./.libs/libnetsnmpmibs.so: undefined reference to `endutxent'
./.libs/libnetsnmpmibs.so: undefined reference to `getutxent'
./.libs/libnetsnmpmibs.so: undefined reference to `exp'

I just started looking into this, I'm going to try the library chase 
that Boris mentioned, but may not be able to get to it for a couple of days.
