"Service check did not exit properly"

Near as I can tell from the src, nagios logs a failed service check 
with "Service check did not exit properly" when it can't execute the 
service check plugin.

I keep getting this failure at random, 'bout once a day using
check_snmp_if and I can't discern why.

I first thought it might be a timeout, but nagios logs those as
timeouts.

I then thought it was a process limit, but I'm so under limits it
hurts.

So, I got cute, I made a wrapper that logs when it starts, and any
output from check_snmp_if or the exact error when it can't execute it.
Welp, it happened again, and I don't see anything in my logs to
indicate what happened, all I see are valid runs.

Anyone have further diag suggestions?
