The DESCRIPTION of the ipSystemStatsOutFragReqds and OBJECT-TYPE (p. 35) says:

           "The number of IP datagrams that would require fragmentation
            in order to be transmitted.

            When tracking interface statistics, the counter of the
            outgoing interface is incremented for a successfully
            fragmented datagram.

            [...]

It should say:

           "The number of IP datagrams that would require fragmentation
            in order to be transmitted.

            When tracking interface statistics, the counter of the
|           outgoing interface is incremented for a datagram requiring
|           fragmentation.

            [...]

Notes:

The DESCRIPTION clauses of the ipSystemStatsOutFragReqds OBJECT-TYPE and the ipSystemStatsOutFragOKs OBJECT-TYPE erroneously contain identical clauses. After analysis of the context it becomes apparent that the DESCRIPTION clause of the ipSystemStatsOutFragReqds OBJECT-TYPE should be updated as above. (Note: The original text is appropriate in the DESCRIPTION clause of the ipSystemStatsOutFragOKs OBJECT-TYPE, where it appears again.)
