Since you can configure nagios to use whatever directory structure you want, it
would be important to take this into consideration.  As to why, well some people
simply prefer different directory structures, as well as some o/s's prefer a
different directory structure.  Solaris, for instance, typically installs under
/opt.  FreeBSD uses yet another.  

as to #2, As long as the path to the nagios.cfg and cgi.cfg is present, it isn't
necessary to hard code directory structures.
