cfg_dir is only valid within nagios.cfg. There can be only one  
nagios.cfg so that would not be permitted.

Reading the code (xdata/xodtemplate.c/ 
xodtemplate_process_config_dir{}), nagios will only parse files with a  
'.cfg' extension within the cfg_dir so you may just be able to add a  
cfg_dir of '/opt' IFF the only files under that with a .cfg extension  
are nagios config files.
