This was for some of the same reasons as in the discussion on the list --
preventing server-side dependencies (in this case, PCRE) from being a
hard, yet mostly unused 'Requires:' on the client-side RPM.

However, it's clear that there're definitely folks who are still using
--local mode, so it makes sense to add it.
We are running all clients in local mode, because the client admins know best what should be tested.
I'll probably do this as a sub-package (xymon-client-local?) so as to
prevent the main RPM from changing its dependencies, though. Pulling that
in will fix this issue.
Well, it simply is confusing, because there's a localclient.cfg in the package, where the --local option is described, the xymonclient.sh knows about the option, but the binary is missing.
