Your RoxTerm version seems to be old too.

WFM[1] (RoxTerm version 1.17.1 (debian sid)). I ran RoxTerm from within 
RoxTerm and from within xterm with another instance of RoxTerm running
roxterm -d myPath and it opened a terminal with the shell into ~/myPath 
as expected on both cases. I expect that you should address this bug to 
Gentoo instead because your RoxTerm version looks old.
