 Please see the bt for the debug data.

 After a review of the code I found that ProgramCount in mpegtables.h was
 returning a very large number from an invalid subtraction operation.
 (Subtraction below zero)

 I applied the patch to my code and I have not had a seg fault for 4 days.
 (Before the patch I would seg fault every 4 to 8 hours.)

 I'm not sure of the component so I put it under mythtv.
