Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge world
2.ls -l /var/lib/games
3.

Actual Results:  
All files are empty (0 bytes)

Expected Results:  
The original files should have been saved.

gnome-games is maintained by the gnome folks.

I hope you didn't lose any world-records in the process... :)

A fix for this is now part of the ebuild for gnome-games-2.4.2. Thanks for your report.
