I

No. My understanding is that when rebuilding an RPM, the BUILD directory
for that RPM is removed and recreated thereby eliminating the reason I
suggested the 'make distclean' (to remove temporary compile files).

At the point it failed I would inspect the spec file to see if you
removed all references to --enable-embedded-perl. Also remove any
references to --with-perlcache. If you're using Dag's RPM it's located
in this section --

%configure \
        --datadir="%{_datadir}/nagios" \
        --libexecdir="%{_libdir}/nagios/plugins" \
        --localstatedir="%{_localstatedir}/log/nagios" \
        --sbindir="%{_libdir}/nagios/cgi" \
        --sysconfdir="%{_sysconfdir}/nagios" \
        --with-cgiurl="/nagios/cgi-bin" \
        --with-command-user="apache" \
        --with-command-group="apache" \
        --with-gd-lib="%{_libdir}" \
        --with-gd-inc="%{_includedir}" \
        --with-init-dir="%{_initrddir}" \
        --with-htmurl="/nagios" \
        --with-lockfile="%{_localstatedir}/run/nagios.pid" \
        --with-mail="/bin/mail" \
        --with-nagios-user="nagios" \
        --with-nagios-group="nagios" \
*******        --enable-embedded-perl \   
*******        --with-perlcache \
        --with-template-objects \
        --with-template-extinfo \
        --enable-event-broker

I would then issue the command 'rpmbuild -bb nagios.spc' and see if it
worked. I've tested it and the ePN is _not_ built into my rpm.

I don't know. Don't bet, try it and see. It would only take a few
minutes and you'll learn a lot more about the software.
