pr-edit crashes

GNATS 4, today's CVS snapshot.

When there is no database configuration file or it's empty, pr-edit
crashes after writing out the error message:

  $ /usr/lib/gnats/pr-edit --lockdb
  pr-edit: Unable to open global configuration file /etc/gnats/databases
  segmentation violation

  $ /usr/lib/gnats/pr-edit --lockdb
  pr-edit: List of databases in /etc/gnats/databases is empty?!
  segmentation violation

When the database configuration files exists, but the databases
directory listed there doesn't exist, pr-edit crashes without any
explanation (which is very confusing for users):

  $ /usr/lib/gnats/pr-edit --lockdb
  segmentation violation
