Really don't understand what this guys problem was back in 2014, but compiling 
NRPE with command line arguments disabled (for "security" reasons) renders the 
software pretty much useless, making people compile their own NRPE manually, 
effectivelly resulting them being cut off from software updates. Great job 
considering "security", really.

Open source idiocy at its best. Jesus.
