Maybe? heh. My *speculation* is that on start/re-start, if you have  
'initial_state o' specified in the service definition and retention  
isn't enabled (or there is no retained status for this service), then  
yes, nagios would set the first state to be 'OK'. That's new  
functionality with 3.x and I haven't looked at it any to be sure thats  
the case but it seems reasonable.
