There's a special incantation you can do afterwards that gets Emacs working
again.  I think it's reinstalling the libncurses package.  Check the email
archives for details.  It's been discussed before.

There's no reason not to use privileged separation if you have the ability
to create users.  As for the message above, try rebaseall again.  Use the
process described in the README.  It's the only way it works.  And it only
works for what you have installed.  Adding to your installation or
reinstalling things you already have installed may require you to rerun
rebaseall to maintain it's affect.
