Forwarding this on in case anyone else has seen this behaviour and has
some suggestions. I'll give it a run through valgrind and see if I can
spot anything this evening.

Ahoy Ethan.

There's a memory leak in Nagios HEAD, causing it to crash when (it
seems) enough checks has been executed. I would have emailed the
nagios-devel list but I believe I'm still banned from it pending a
solution to the sourceforge list server fuckup? Could one of you forward
this to that list, please?

It's compiled without embedded perl, and without perl caching, like so;
./configure --prefix=/opt/monitor

I'll start digging today, so I might have a patch ready for you soon.

I Cc'ed Matthew Kent on this as well, seeing as he's been very helpful
with the finding and fixing earlier.
