Well, yea, but the question is how to address it.

It really seems like /usr/local/libexec/nagios/send_{host,service}_check 
is superfluous.

Its a lot of extra forking and pipeing on an already deadly inefficient 
system.

Of course, one cheap hack deserves another and for the time being it seems 
that:

/bin/echo "$1//$2//$3" | /usr/local/sbin/send_nsca -H master \
         -c /usr/local/etc/nagios/send_nsca.cfg -d "//"

Using "//" as a delimeter is not likely to show up in any macro of plugin 
output (Except for maybe Samba? fuck screw that)
