If it works for superuser, it is almost for certain a permission
problem.  Check whether the users can access (e.g. via `cat') the PR
files in the database directory.

If you want to restrict read access there, the best way is to use an
access through gnatsd (`query-pr --host ...' etc.) or you can setuid
gnats the query-pr binary.
