Thanks for the suggestion guys.  I posted the new IPC code yesterday and 
it does store check results in /var/spool/nagios/checkresults by 
default.  You can override the directory with the check_result_path 
config option, and there is a configure script --with-checkresult-dir 
option to make package creation easier.
