23    ** By default, Emacs now uses a setgid helper program to update game
24    scores.  Game scores are normally stored in ${prefix}/var/games/emacs.
25    This may be controlled by the configure option `--with-game-dir'.  The
26    specific user that Emacs uses to own the game scores is controlled by
27    `--with-game-user'.  If access to a game user is not available
28    (e.g. Emacs is not being built as root, or the specified game user
