Multiple Nagios proccesses running.

Hi Andreas,

Well, I don't think nagios 1.x should be "unmaintained" until 2.0 is
released as final, and I will probably continue using it for a long time
after that anyway. I wish I had more time to "maintain" it myself.

Can you tell us what's wrong with it so we can fix our own initscripts?

Then it's not "well written" in my book :-) Nagios tries to do the
mutual exclusion, but fails for reasons that I don't understand yet.

Cheers, Chris.
