Came across this myself, and can confirm it. I have also found the
problem.

As Ratbox Services uses SQLIte, it attempts to create a journal file
when it makes changes to it's DB (As reported by strace). But the folder
the DB is in (/etc/ratbox-services) is owned by root and is not world-
writable.

You can "Fix" the problem by setting /etc/ratbox-services a+w with
chmod, but that's not exactly the most secure way of doing things.
