$config_prefix is autoconf-speak for $prefix/etc.  for prepackaged
distros that'd probably be straight /etc, and for those who do
configure --prefix=/usr/local it'd be /usr/local/etc.

it would be built-in at build time.  if you were building from the
nagios tarball you could just use autofoo substitutions, but if it's
being done outside i'd probably just deafult to whatever the ./configure
script would default to (one of the two directories i mentioned
above, i forget which).  and of course provide a way to override it
at build time as well.
