first of all, IBM support in NUT is still on my (Eaton) TODO list...

I've (very) quickly looked at it, and should be able to provide something
quickly.
That said:
- the sysOID is buggy (fix scheduled) and pointing wrongly the MGE MIB
(iso.3.6.1.4.1.705.1), which is not implemented on this device.

Moreover, the NUT version you're using is using a simple "try and fail"
test, that tries to match against ".1.3.6.1.4.1.534.1".
And this OID is also not available:
$ snmpget -v1 -c public <ip-of-ups> .1.3.6.1.4.1.534.1
Error in packet
Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.
Failed object: iso.3.6.1.4.1.534.1

I'll check all this when I have a bit more time, and will update you as
soon as possible.

cheers,
Arnaud
