You cannot put citations in the abstract section at all (see RFC-Editor
page that defines the policy)
http://www.rfc-editor.org/policy.html
specifically:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/policy.html#policy.abstract
Based on the below it is OK to put something in abstract aka
(RFC xxxx)

This looks ok to me. Sounds as a normative ref even.
You MIB doc will not becoem RFC till the rfcxxxx is also an RFC
and RFC-Editor normally takes care of syncing them up.
Hope this helps,
