Status display errors

They aren't special plugins.  They're just the stock plugins like
check_disk, etc.  Even though it says 3/3, it never changes the OK
output, only the values like load change slightly. Every time I run
them from the command line, I get status 0.

It gets stranger.  I discovered today that it seems to be specific to
the test environment.

I added two production servers with all the same service monitors and
they've been solid green since I added them.

I'll keep looking into it tomorrow since I've now jumpstarted the test
machine over again to be sure that it's all clean.
