In a previous life, I monitored some 60 or so remote sites, each
one with a replicating master-slave pair of MySQL 4.x servers.
The base check_mysql (with the "-S" switch) monitored the replication
just fine for us, including the amount of time a slave was behind,
if the slave thread was running properly, and a number of other
details.  It never missed any replication failures, and trust me,
MySQL replication failed all the freakin' time.
