[Xymon] if statment issue on ext script

[Steve Coile]

It probably does expand, but it's never set because *$IP* never matches any
of the regular expressions.  An *else* statement with an error message will
show this.  Alternatively, in the definition of* $MSG*, give *$HOST* a
default value that makes this condition clear: *${HOST:-none}*.
