Oh ho!  I have multiple *gearman* processes running:

ps axuwwwwww | grep gearman
gearmand  5662  0.7  0.1 404672  2496 ?        Ssl  Aug17 118:29
/usr/sbin/gearmand -d -l /var/log/gearmand/gearmand.log
nagios    5712  0.0  0.0  38024   640 ?        Ss   Aug17   1:03
/usr/bin/mod_gearman_worker -d
--config=/etc/mod_gearman/mod_gearman_worker.conf
--pidfile=/var/mod_gearman/mod_gearman_worker.pid
nagios   25919  0.0  0.1 137492  3016 ?        S    07:38   0:00
/usr/bin/mod_gearman_worker -d
--config=/etc/mod_gearman/mod_gearman_worker.conf
--pidfile=/var/mod_gearman/mod_gearman_worker.pid

.. etc ..

Are you saying I just need gearmand running on the collector?  I'm
quite new to gearman, so I might have misunderstood which parts are
necessary where.  I can easily shut down the mod_gearman_worker
service, I just need to understand the consequences.

I assumed that this was a Nagios error - perhaps I just have my
gearman setup configured wrong.
