Comment:

 Nigel, I have spent all of 15 seconds on this, only because I couldn't run
 mythtv-setup. So I have no idea if this patch is correct; I didn't even
 check
 to see if the users of LookupUDN() are checking for null returns. But the
 existing code was getting stuck in an infinite loop after trying to access
 item # -2 in a linked list of size 0. With this patch it just prints this
 instead:
 {{{
 2007-11-28 19:20:01.665 LookupUDN(), Error: Not enough tokens
 }}}
