nagios doesn't start at boot on Gentoo

I recently had to reboot my Gentoo box to install a new kernel, and when 
I did, I noticed that nagios didn't start automatically on boot.

I have it added to the current runlevel (default on Gentoo).  It appears 
to be some sort of syntax issue w/the way Gentoo starts services at 
boot, because when it should have started nagios, I saw the syntax 
displayed instead:

Usage: nagios {start|stop|restart|reload|force-reload|status}

I've also noticed that if I to an "rc-status" on Gentoo, nagios always 
shows as "off" even if it really is running.

I didn't use the ebuild of Nagios to install, I installed it from source 
manually (v2.0 wasn't available as an ebuild when I last looked... guess 
it's available now in ~x86).  Is there something I can do to the init.d 
script to make it work better with Gentoo?

thx!
