Comment:

 This error was still occurring even after I added the tzinfo to mysql. The
 cause is that the distribution I am using (FreeBSD, well, FreeNAS) does
 not have a timezone called UTC. It has something called Etc/UTC, and it
 appears that mythtv checks for the existence of UTC (quite reasonably).
 Can we have it also check for Etc/UTC?

 I have added info to the wiki here:

 http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MySQL_Time_Zone_Tables

 Think this error message also needs better info - it's not immediately
 obvious to the user/admin to go to the wiki and search for the page. Maybe
 a link to the wiki page could be given in the error message?
