It doesn't care now, Christoph. See at the bottom..

What would be expected ...

[root at PRIMATES-PLM .tvtime]# /sbin/sysctl -w dev.rtc.max-user-freq=10
dev.rtc.max-user-freq = 10

Fortunately the issue has ended... Since it died so suddenly when trying
as a normal user, and they were _just_ the last lines before the segment
fault advice those that seem to point to a problem inside my
$HOME/.tvtime/ path, then I tried to rename to .backup those two config
files inside it, in order to try to launch it without any and let that
tvtime create them by its own; that went as expected, and now it works
fine as a normal user. 
I don't know if I've messed up with those two files before, meanwhile or
after applying the corrections that "tvtime -v" suggested to me,
probably _meanwhile_ at an starting age two days ago, and because of
that, such changes were not taking effect. 

Even, I had reported to bugzilla of this as a new bug!!! What a silly
mind!, I expect that it doesn't get to be approved at all...! 

As simple, as silly... as that (the outputs of the same):

[daniel at PRIMATES-PLM ~]$ cd .tvtime
[daniel at PRIMATES-PLM .tvtime]$ ls
stationlist.xml  tvtime.xml
[daniel at PRIMATES-PLM .tvtime]$ mv stationlist.xml stationlist.xml.back
[daniel at PRIMATES-PLM .tvtime]$ mv tvtime.xml tvtime.xml.back
[daniel at PRIMATES-PLM .tvtime]$ ls
stationlist.xml.back  tvtime.xml.back
[daniel at PRIMATES-PLM .tvtime]$ tvtime
