Maybe post the last 50 lines or so of the strace output...

Try leaving off the last '!'. That indicates to nagios that there is  
another $ARGx$ to follow but none is present. Perhaps you're tweaking  
a bug that doesn't know how to handle that properly. If it persists,  
try a more recent version of nagios (2.12 or 3.0.).
