Nagios not honoring large check_interval

Running stock Nagios 3.0.6 compiled for Red Hat 4.
I have a service check that I only want performed every 2 hours. I've
set up the service check as follows
define service {
name my_service
stuff not shown
register 0
check_interval 120
retry_interval 15
max_check_attempts 2
}
In another file this service is "activated" like so
define service {
use my_service
}
In my nagios.cfg interval_length=60
The service shows up in the view config bit in Nagios as checking every
two hours, but the actual behavior of Nagios is to run the check every hour.
I looked through some of the scheduling code, but I'm not seeing
anything obvious. Comparing the scheduling code in checks.c for my
version to HEAD isn't throwing up any red flags as well.
Has anyone else encountered this behavior?
