Nagios doesn't know that a stale check is critical, it just forces a 
service check. If you want stale checks to report their staleness, just 
define a service check command script that does an echo w/a meaningful 
report of staleness and have it "exit 3". 

The only thing Nagios does (if freshness is enabled) w/a stale check is 
force execution of a plugin.
