I've also seen some cases where I need a restart for a threshold to be picked 
up, but I can't remember needing it for a change in client-local.cfg. So far 
it looks only like it happens when change where a hosts threshold 
configuration is (e.g. when adding a new HOST= section where the host was 
previously catered to by the DEFAULT).
