moria fails to start with Abort error

As the bug watcher status message above mentioned, this issue was fixed
in Debian. The new package version, 5.6.debian.1-1, has been synced to
the current development version of Ubuntu (Trusty Tahr). There, moria
starts as expected.
This is a significant bug in Ubuntu. If you need a fix for the
Tested in Tahr, seems to start up.

Ben Hearsum: I don't think there's much to be done; I could try asking
for an Ubuntu patch for it; the debian maintainer said he'd have a look
at it (see debian bug) a few months back, but doesn't seem to have got
anywhere, but the problem is Debian is stuck in release freeze.

Dave, thank you for this patch - it's working great for me.
Does anyone know if there's anything I can do to help get this patch
landed and the package fixed?

When you run it from a VT (Ctrl-Alt-F1 works) you get some output.
Redirecting stdout shows that it's trying to create a file and it fails,
but doesn't indicate which file. Redirecting both stderr and stdout
makes the kernel output easier to read (but hard to capture): *** buffer
overflow detected
Just for the sake of completeness, I attach here what I get from the above hint.
I've simply run:
mora moriaabort.txt
The file itself contains some VT-100-like screen codes along with some
interesting string:

OK, it's a one char overrun in the hours reading code; because someone forgot
the remove the \n
This starts up, but I don't know the game so haven't checked the 'hours' work
as intended.

It also affects Ubuntu Quantal, which is not that suprising considering
they all have the same package version, 5.6-2. Out of curiosity, I tried
moria on an up-to-date Debian Sid system which also has the same package
version, but it ran fine there. This suggests it might be an Ubuntu-

I'm also seeing this in Xubuntu 12.04 x64. I've tried running via a
PuTTY (ssh) connection and an X2go (X11) connection.
I believe the scores file issue is meant to be fixed by adding the user
to the 'games' group. That doesn't fix the aborted error, though.

Just to check, I changed permisson of this file, but it still aborts. gdb seem
