The check I disabled (or rather altered) is not the local modification
check. It's a separate check for the a missing RCS file.

That check is not conditional to -c; it happens without -c. If you
tag over some locally added file without -c, you will get the error
``nothing known about <file>'' and the tagging will fail.
The old logic was:
if (no RCS file)
problem
My fix has this:
if (no RCS file)
if (locally added)
okay
else
problem
