Nagios 2.5 and weird problem

[Mark Hennessy]

They're all already running through the perl interpreter using #!.  I'm not
using the embedded perl.

Thanks for the suggestion, though.  When I get this problem with load worked
out, I'll see if using embedded perl will make things run more efficiently
overall.
