There was agreement by the developers to *have* this, and no explicit
agreement to *remove* it - you got an ACK for the patch, but I'm fairly
sure that it was not made clear that you removed t_client.sh functionality
while moving stuff around, because otherwise you would have seen NAKs.

If someone wants to run it as non-root, RUN_SUDO can be defined in 
t_client.rc, and for someone having no provileges at all, you can just
leave off t_client.rc, and it will skip these tests with no adverse
effects.
