After a really long debug session oriented by Jester with Jenton's help I
finally got tired enough to make the right mistake - run fgfs as root - and
find out what was wrong: permissions!

I would never think about checking permissions for the kind of errors above.
There wasn't a single access denied error shown to me all this time which
makes this whole stuff stranger.

Anyway I'm writing just to share this little peace of new knowledge:
permission problem cause nasal scripts to fail in mysterious ways.

Now I will try to fix the permissions set by Gentoo's ebuild for FlightGear.

Thanks again to all that helped.

I hope I get back with some more interesting problems in the future.
