Have you thought of defineing a check_http that accepts a Host Parameter?

in Services:
define service{
		host_name 	 foo
		..
		..
		check_command check_http_host!192.168.1.20
}

checkcommands.cfg:

define command{
		command_name check_http_host
		command_line $USER1$/check_http -H $ARG1$
	}

That works for me!
