Summary: check_http plugin does not handle HTTP host header properly 

Initial Comment:
Hi.

This is from the old / soon to be disabled again Nagios Plugins bug tracker that used to be at Nagios itself.
I've just copied this bug over. I'm not the original reporter and have no idea about the thoughts about this bug.

This used to be: http://tracker.nagios.org/view.php?id=211

The check_http plugin sends the "-H" argument as the HTTP host header even when a "-u" url argument is given; the latter is more correct I believe. My patch seems to correct the issue on my installation, but my C code may not be optimal. Patch is against nagios-plugins-1.4.15.
