I notice that gnuchess pl69 has been distributed with the "gnufour ICS
client" set of options uncommented and the "normal" set commented out.
There are several differences between the sets of options, which makes
me unsure whether simply commenting out "client" and using "normal" is
the right thing to do.  Which options are ordinary users supposed to
use?

Can't we just get rid of the special CLIENT stuff in future versions
of gnuchess?  More often than not the release is accidentally sent out
with -DCLIENT defined, as it was this time.  Fortunately, I think
-DCLIENT no longer makes gnuchess incompatible with xboard (as it did
in earlier gnuchess patchlevels).
