services in host availability report don't mat ch known status

[Ewan Leith]

Because the host checks are never run unless one of the service checks
fails, it really is a case of the host state being "unknown". I've never
tested it, but setting

First assumed service state: Service down
First assumed host state: Host down

might set off a host check the first time nagios starts, thus setting it to
"Up"?
