Comment(by mstone):

 First, the gnuchess rpm also installs a 3.6M file called
 /var/lib/games/gnuchess/book.dat that looks like it might be significant.

 Second, sugar commit 177ee7220ac5cb4b6d9b8367ef10f2fa83103a49, from Oct. 9
 caused sugar to add $BUNDLE/bin to the PATH variable used to launch
 activities.

 Third, source code inspection suggests to me that activities CWD is equal
 to $SUGAR_BUNDLE_PATH.

 Finally: be aware that support for $BUNDLE/lib in #5415 still open pending
 a stylistic change. This is not necessary for gnuchess, which has no
 interesting library dependencies, but may be an issue for other software.
