snmpd reports wrong interface speed when it is run as the snmp user. Running snmpd as root gives the correct result. Debug output suggests a permission problem. The gigabit network interface speed is correctly determined at startup, but fails when the owner of the process switches from root to the snmp user (or so I assume). After failure snmpwalk reports a speed of 10 Mbit/s for all interfaces.
Using snmp user:
# snmpd -f -Le -Lf /dev/null -u snmp -I -smux -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -DmibII/interfaces
registered debug token mibII/interfaces, 1

The reason is that the user you were running the command does not have permissions to set the speed of the device.
