I guess the problem here is that you want to put the executable 
below %{_libdir}, afaik executables should go below %{_libexecdir}. But I 
guess that nagios needs to be patched to use %{_libexecdir}, which is the 
same for i386 and x86_64 afaik and should not hurt, because %{_bindir} is 
also the same on both archs.
