Sorry, I should have mentioned that yes, I have tried various
combinations of CGI.escape and URI.escape/encode

Whenever I get to something that URI.parse will accept, I just get a
404 error from the Icinga server!

I have a feeling they're just doing a straight paste of whatever
parameters are on the URL into an SQL query ... which isn't dangerous
at all, of course.
