I don't seem to be able to do this:

define hostgroup {
     hostgroup_name                            basic_svc_snmp-svc
     alias                                     basic_svc_snmp-svc
     hostgroup_members                         all-hst,!basic_svc_ns-svc
}

If it is not possible at this point, I'd like to suggest it as a
somewhat obvious extension to hostgroup definitions.

It's not possible now -- members of hostgroups need to be hosts, and
can't be other hostgroups.
According to http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectdefinitions.html#hostgroup, you can have "sub" hostgroups. So in theory he should be able to specify a hostgroup that contains every host, subtracting another group.
