 one of those odd build/install issues.

 Quick update:

 I had a brief period last evening to run make distclean, etc.  When I
 restarted mythbackend, it called mythfilldatabase in short order - and
 everything ran fine.

 However, overnight, mythfilldatabase ran again and segfaulted.  When I
 scanned my log files for the past couple of days, there were a several
 other times that mythfilldatabase ran to completion without segfaulting.

 Over the weekend, hopefully I'll find some time to compile in debugging
 and get you a backtrace.

 One last comment, I thought that mythfilldatabase would run once per day
 per lineup (I let datadirect when to run).  But it looks like
 mythfilldatabase ran 7 times yesterday (including 4 times since I
 recompiled).  Strange.
