Even if I really knew the client well enough to predict that kind
of thing, I still need the job.

Those who take offense will be few.  Nearly every software package
you can buy off the shelf has some kind of copy protection.  It's
a nuisance, but I hardly expect Intuit, Symantec, or Micro$oft to
trust me until they really know me.  And if a prospective client 
really wants to look at some of my code, they can ask.  (And I'll
accommodate them.)
