I forgot to mention: if you can't fix the script, the workaround is
to change the command definition for the problem plugin (commands.cfg or
checkcommands.cfg) so that the command is something like


# 'check_nntp' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_nntp
        command_line    $USER1$/check_nntp -H $HOSTADDRESS$
        }

==>


# 'check_nntp' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_nntp
        command_line    /usr/bin/perl $USER1$/check_nntp -H
$HOSTADDRESS$
        }


ie add Perl to the command line (so that the script is not run by the
kernel reading the
shebang line directly from the script).
