The definition of the OBJECT-TYPEs does not change (to this respect). But the definition of TEXTUAL-CONVENTIONs is changed to ASN.1 type definitions. Hence, when your set of MIBs is converted to SMIv1, also INET-ADDRESS-MIB is converted to SMIv1 and your MIB imports it and knows about the type defintion of InetAddressType.
