Bug Impact: calling the "reload" init script action for nagios2 results in killing the daemon.

Affected supported releases: hardy. The bug in LSB has been introduced between gutsy and hardy.

Development branch fix: nagios3 is shipped with Intrepid. LSB has been fixed in intrepid so that killproc correctly transmits signals.

TEST CASE:
$ sudo apt-get install nagios2
[...]
$ pidof nagios2
5124
$ sudo /etc/init.d/nagios2 reload
 * Reloading nagios2 monitoring daemon configuration files nagios2 [ OK ]
$ pidof nagios2
$
Nagios should be running after the reload.

Regression potential discussion:
This update only impacts the reload action of the nagios2 init script, which is currently completely broken.
