This was discussed on IRC. I believe the event-handler works now (was
using SERVICE* macros instead of HOST*), however the log line is still
showing NULLs:

HOST EVENT HANDLER: server.com;(null);(null);(null);http-host-event

Since it's using the same method to print those macros all over the
place (an extern int*) I'd guess it affects all event handlers (only the
log, the command is expanded properly). The log line shown above comes
from base/sehandlers.c:590.
