exposing host/service check state to plugins ?

[Guillaume Rousse]

Hello list.

I'm curious if there is a way, from a check plugin to get the current 
state of another host/service check in some way? It would allow easy 
implementation of boolean logic between checks, such as 'is there at 
least one auth backend available ?', or 'are all my gateways OK ?', 
without using nasty tricks such as digging into nagios log, or 
performing the test twice...

The embeded perl interpreter would be potentialy an easier target for 
this, as I imagine exposing the whole nagios state through 
macro/environement is a bit hairy.
