navit_get_user_data_directory(int create) {
	char *dir;
	dir = getenv("NAVIT_USER_DATADIR");
	if (create && !file_exists(dir)) {
		dbg(0,"creating dir %s\n", dir);
		if (file_mkdir(dir,0)) {
			dbg(0,"failed creating dir %s\n", dir);
			return NULL;
		}
	}
	return dir;
} /* end: navit_get_user_data_directory(gboolean create) */

so you shouldnt need to make the dir AFAIK.

perhaps nose around in there a bit more and see if that (baf) error traces back to something obvious. does the file exist?
