About the highscore dir, we could use --enable-setgid and give the executables 
a setgid and ownership to root.games. This way, users can write in the score 
files under /var/games (which can be specified with the 
--enable-highscore-dir=/var/games).

When the --enable-highscore-dir is used, the make install creates some .score 
files (ie kbounce.scores) and stores it in the directory configured 
(ie /var/games). These files needs to be owned by user root, group games, and 
permissions with 0664. This way the games executables that are setgid to games 
group can access and change them.

This is the way used in many currently games in FE. Examples that I'm seeing 
here right now: powermanga and nethack-vultures.
