Define our own macros

To be honest, I don't see why you can't use servicedesc
For example, you are using check_tcp to check for amanda on port
10080. You can set your servicedesc as "amanda", "amanda_on_10080",
or "tcp_port_10080"
If you must go to the source:
the service struct is defined in objects.h, IIRC
grab_service_macros() is in utils.c, and it is called immediately
before every service notification. You can probably fill the
information you would like to add into one of the $USERn$ macros,
which come from the macro_user[] array originally defined in nagios.c
Good luck.
