You can't build the patch. You have to apply it to the spec file contained 
inside the tarball, and then use rpmbuild -ba on that:

cp argus-clients-3.0.2/lib/argus-clients.spec /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
patch -p1 < /tmp/argus-clients-3.0.2-spec.patch
rpmbuild -ba argus-clients.spec

Cheers, Chris.
