I consider this a bug in gRustibus. Not only does it expect to be able to
read the xmame binary, but it leaks a file descriptor and file handle.
In line 619 of mameio.c, you have:
if (!fopen(general_prefs.xmame_exe, "r")) {
which should probably be:
if (!access(general_prefs.xmame_exe, X_OK)) {
(BTW, this is gRustibus 0.43 I'm looking at.)
