To keep you updated: I opened a PMR, and APAR IY53554 adresses the issues.
There is an e-fix that adds a new option "-oldservice" to the mibtable
command that reverts the behaviour to the one prior fixpack2. In the case
of
the OSPF table on cisco devices, this fixes the problem (mibtable doesn't
hang any more).

Thanks Leslie to pointing me in the correct direction.
