Comment (by ossman):

 It is part of the solution anyway. It shouldn't abort when it can't read
 the user config, no matter the reason.

 As for the case of root not being able to read it, it should only appear
 with nfs root-squash (or similar) and requiring a+x in that case is not
 the end of the world. The config file shouldn't contain security sensitive
 information. A solution that handles all cases would be incredibly complex
 (e.g. the global conf might only be readable by root). Ideas welcome
 though.
