Run check_nrpe with the -n switch, or try this backwards ssl/non-ssl 
compatible version I wrote some time ago (posted earlier, but not to 
this list). Note thought that it's the plugin (check_nrpe) that's 
'all-flavour' compatible. It wouldn't make much sense to make the daemon 
(nrpe) abide to the wims of the client, so that'll probably never happen.

For complete compatibility it requires that openssl 0.9.6 or later is 
installed on your nagios server, where it should be compiled.
