Just switched to gcc-4.1.1, so I had to upgrade to xfractint-20.4.03
FRACTDIR is set to /usr/share/xfractint. Running xfractint as root works
properly, but trying the same as a user it segfaults:
Fractint found the following problems when parsing commands:
Can't find map=./maps/default.map, please check sstools.ini
Can't find ifsfile=./ifs/fractint.ifs, please check sstools.ini
Can't find parmfile=./pars/fractint.par, please check sstools.ini
Can't find lfile=./lsystem/fractint.l, please check sstools.ini
Can't find formulafile=./formulas/fractint.frm, please check sstools.ini
Press Escape to abort, any other key to continueSegmentation fault
As far as I can tell, it first tries to read user-specific files from ~ and
then reads default values found in /usr/share/xfractint. But that won't work:

chmod +x on all the dirs does the trick for me, so my question would be if
that's broken by design. If not, please add the chmod to the ebuild :)
