Now I find that RRDs::fetch is broke with respect to zero values:
with 1.0.33, RRDs::fetch of zero values returns 'undef'.  

I wrote a little script to demonstrate the problem... and here's
the results...

 chive(rader): rrdtool fetch -s -10min -e now \
   /usr/local/nrg/web/apache/Chive/Chive-tp.rrd AVERAGE \
   | tail -4
 984673800: 1.1650888889e+00
 984674100: 0.0000000000e+00
 984674400: 0.0000000000e+00
 984674700:        NaN

 chive(rader): ./rrdfetch.pl \
   /usr/local/nrg/web/apache/Chive/Chive-tp.rrd AVERAGE \
   | tail -4
 984673800: 1.1650888889e+00 
 984674100: 0.0000000000e+00  (undef)
 984674400: 0.0000000000e+00  (undef)
 984674700: 0.0000000000e+00  (undef)
