Yes, although the complexity of the solution depends on how you're
running this check and how desperate you are to maintain the output
as it is.

If you aren't rabid about keeping the output, you can specify checks
that check one partition at a time, which will make output a lot
shorter and therefore not susceptible to running into the input limits
in Nagios (or whatever transports might see the plugin along the way).
That's the "doesn't matter how you run it" answer though.

Is it being run via nrpe?

If yes, you'll need to extend the NRPE protocol (there are presently
discussions regarding this on nagios-devel@) to be able to send
arbitrarily long output.

What nagios version are you using?
If 2.x or 2.x, you may have to increase the input limit in the header
files and then re-compile Nagios.
AFAIU, Nagios 3 already supports arbitrarily long input from plugins,
so that shouldn't be a problem.
