Summary: check_disk incorrect output when checking non-existant disk.

Initial Comment:
Fedora core 3 system - plugin release 1.4.2.

When running check_disk on a non-existent disk the
output is not helpful:

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk   \
    -c 20 -w 30  -p /boot -p /dev/shm -p /home -p /foo

where /foo doesn't exist produces (split for readability):

DISK CRITICAL - free space: /boot 168 MB (88%); \
  /dev/shm 1014 MB (100%); /home 6590 MB (67%); \
  |  /boot=22MB;159;169;0;189 \
    /dev/shm=0MB;983;993;0;1013
   /home=3268MB;9828;9838;0;9858 \
   [/foo not found]

The [/foo not found] error occurs in the performance
output part of the plugin and not the user output.
BTW this command produces an ok status if run without
the /foo.

This should be changed so that the error is put (first)
in the
regular output.

John,

Thanks for report. Fixed in CVS.

There's another bug in that check_disk -w 30% -c 20% -p /foo actually 
checks /. This should not be the case as df /foo would return a failure. I've 
marked it in the tests to look at in future.
