use check_http to go CRIT on 404s?

[Pietan, James J (HSS)]

You may be able to use the -e option ...

check_http -I $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$ -u $ARG2$ =e $ARG3$

ARG1 = IP address
ARG2 = website address
ARG3 = HTTP/1.1 200   (I believe this is the standard return code and what would be expected to be returned) so, if it gets any other code, it would return critical

Is there anyway for this check to go CRIT for a 404 response? If not, do you have any plugin suggestions for this functionality, or should I just create my own script?
