check_tcp behaves differently depending on the name it was called as.
Looking at the source, there are several --

       if (strstr (argv[0], "check_udp")) {
        else if (strstr (argv[0], "check_tcp")) {
        else if (strstr (argv[0], "check_ftp")) {
        else if (strstr (argv[0], "check_smtp")) {
        else if (strstr (argv[0], "check_pop")) {
        else if (strstr (argv[0], "check_imap")) {
        else if (strstr(argv[0],"check_simap")) {
        else if (strstr(argv[0],"check_spop")) {
        else if (strstr(argv[0],"check_jabber")) {
       else if (strstr (argv[0], "check_nntps")) {
        else if (strstr (argv[0], "check_nntp")) {


When jabber support was added to check_tcp, SSL connections were
required regardless of whether -S was used or not (per the ChangeLog and
a glance at the code). It looks like the jabber code was made to respect
the -S flag on June 5th in CVS. Try the latest CVS version.
