Description of problem:
On an unregistered system in a text window I tried running up2date --nox
--register, expecting it to run the registration part of up2date, but it failed
with an error message saying something like (from memory)
No interactive method available.
and giving me a list of up2date options. I eventually registered the system by
running up2date -l.
The up2date version is 2.9.46 and the rhnlib version is 0.8-13.

fixed around 2.9.53 or so... (commandline parsing screwup)
