Just installed jp-babel kernel, started a new notebook. Then the kernel died:

Error: EACCES: permission denied, scandir '/store/mycomputer/datastore'
    at Object.fs.readdirSync (fs.js:904:18)

It looks like jp-babel traverses up the directories in order to find a .babelrc.

$ ls -l /store/mycomputer/datastore
ls: cannot open directory '/store/mycomputer/datastore': Permission denied
$ ls -ld /store/mycomputer/datastore
drwx--x--x 9 root root 4096 Jan  4 15:41 /store/mycomputer/datastore

This is how things are on the computer I'm currently at. I guess we can't assume all parent dirs are accessible.
