servicedependencies not working

I've started playing with making a bunch of dependencies and at first it appeared to be working, right now I've got a pretty basic test setup. I've added one service to be dependent on the other one, but it seems that the freshness might be mucking with it. Two services below:
define service {
service_description base_log_checks
servicegroups base_service_group
hostgroup_name base_windows_2003
use generic-passive-service
check_freshness 1
freshness_threshold 3600
check_command service_is_
}
define service {
service_description nagios_cron
servicegroups base_service_group
hostgroup_name base_windows_2003
use generic-passive-service
check_freshness 1
freshness_threshold 3000
check_command service_is_stale
}
define servicedependency {
service_description nagios_cron
dependent_service_description base_log_checks
execution_failure_criteria w,u,c
notification_failure_criteria w,u,c
inherits_parent 1
}
What appears to happen is that I kill nsclient so nagios_cron starts reporting "stale" at 3000 seconds, and the same for base_log_checks shortly after. Then about every hour I get more "stale" soft alerts, and then after the third try it goes to a HARD alert and I still get a ticket, though I'm not sure why it's even checking if execution should be disable when nagios_cron is in a warning state. But not only does the active checks (service_is_stale) get executed but I'm also still getting notifications sent after 3 attempts, so it doesn't really appear to be doing anything. Unfortunately right now these servers are so busy it's hard to put them in debug mode. Have I missed something obvious with these?
