Summary: crash if game files not found

Initial Comment:
my setup:
- datafiles on an NTFS partition
- scummvm (latest daily build) under linux, but no NTFS
driver loaded
- scummvm tries to start the game, but instead of
saying something like "file/path not found" I get:

Looking for kyra1
Trying to start game 'Legend of Kyrandia'
Unknown MD5 (\uffff1v)! Please report the details
(language, platform, etc.) of this game to the ScummVM team
*** glibc detected *** ./scummvm: free(): invalid
pointer: 0x0000003ed00326f8 ***
======= Backtrace: =========
/lib64/libc.so.6[0x3ecfe6a71e]
(and so on...)

I filed it under "bug" for now because it's not really
a new feature to be added.

(upon mounting the NTFS partition it works just fine)
