Debug output from plugins

Is there any way to get Nagios to log more of what the plugins dump to
stderr and stdout?
I'm having an issue with a custom plugin of mine, which (according to Nagios)
is /periodically/ existing with status UNKNOWN and no output (it does this
maybe 1 execution in 100). It's a fairly simple perl script, and all
instances of exit() are preceeded by output to stdout. So, the only reason I
can think of for Nagios to report this is if perl completely failed to compile
the script -- except then I should get some other exit value besides 3.
I suspect it's Nagios that has the problem, not the script, but I'd like to
absolutely rule out problems with the script first. I would try dumping some
debug output from the script, except that I can't find a way to get Nagios to
capture that information... anyone have any ideas?
