getNagios() should always be called with a path to the nagios.cfg config 
file. Cases where you see it without an argument are old code and can be 
considered bugs.

I see the places that this happens are in enumInstances handlers. Since 
no Nagios instance is specified, you'll need to iterate through all 
possible Nagios instances... something like

foreach my $configfile (grep(-f $_, @CONFIG_FILES))
{
    my $nagios = main::getNagios($configfile);

    # enum instances for this Nagios
    # ...
}

That's good... it's been ages since I've sent out a status update or 
posted a news item... perhaps this will motivate me to do that...
