Christophe, > Yes but if i understand, there is a bug in libc_r on FreeBSD ?
libc_r indeed has some kind of bug, I don't know. Anyhow, you are using RELENG_5, so you should be using native threads with either libpthread (libkse, M:N) or libthr (1:1). I don't know what Nagios does just after fork(2), it would be worth to check. It appears that fork(2)ing without exec(2)ing or _exit(2)ing in a pthreaded program is not a "valid" behaviour, regarding to SUSv3 [1]. I don't want to avoid admitting there is a problem in FreeBSD threading library, I don't know how other OSes handle this, but Nagios folks should really avoid doing what is explicitely dissuaded in SUSv3. For now, it doesn't resolve your problem unfortunately.
