[mythtv] mythgame segmentation fault when mythgame binary is defined

[m0j0.j0j0]

RedHat 7.3 (w/ 2.4.20) AMD XP 1800+  
xmame (x11) 0.62.2

Xmame runs great if I call it directly. If mythgame has the correct
variable set for xmame, it segfaults immediately.

Is anyone else using mythgame from CVS successfully?
