Daniel,

I've been needing to do custom compiles on FreeBSD, and i cheated
by doing the following:

(1) Do the normal make in /usr/ports/net-mgmt/nagios/ (but don't
    make install)
(2) Use cp -r (or tar) to make a copy of the work/nagios-1.2/
    subdirectory elsewhere in your tree
(3) Do a ./configure with a modified version of the argument list.
    You can find the original argument list used by ports in a
    comment at the top of the file config.status, and then work
    from there.

    (Unfortunately, it's kind of a long list, but i imagine that
    the most relevant piece is that it ends with some sort of machine
    type specification such as "i386-portbld-freebsd-4.9" (may be
    different on your machine)).
(4) Then do a "make" and "make install" like you normally would.

For the record, in order to get gd, i had to add the argument:

  --with-gd-inc=/usr/local/include

to my configure line.

Hope this helps.
