The nethack-3.2.2 package package sets user and group to games.games
and permissions 664 for every file in /usr/local/lib/nethackdir/
This has been deliberately set both in PLIST and in patch-aa (I think)

Running nethack fails with:
Warning: cannot write scoreboard file /usr/local/lib/nethackdir/record
No write permission to lock perm!

What's the trick here? Are well behaved users supposed to be rewarded
by adding them to the games group or something?
