--- Comment #4 from Andrew Schott <andrew at schotty.com> ---
I figured out what was causing me grief.  Blizzard's code hates symlinks.  I
have segregated off my game data in every prefix, and symlink it in where
appropriate.  So in this case I have a blizzard_games folder elsewhere that I
symlinked each game in where BNet defaults the install to.  I removed these
symlinks and instead mapped a drive letter to it, and lastly pointed BNet to
the new drive letter.  In game shop works now.

I have a few prefixes that all were experiencing the black screen issue, and
all are fixed now by getting away from the symlinks.
