For some reason, this appears not be working for me. (svn 7171). I dumped 
	    CHANNEL(old_params.frequency);
	    CHANNEL(tuning.params.frequency);
just before
            bool frequency_unchanged =


And tried to subsequently tune to two channels from the same transponder. 
For some reason, the old_params.frequency is way off the set frequency. 
Note that I tune twice to transponder frequency 12515000.

I have a budget-ci (Hauppauge NOVA) card.
Excerpt from backend -v channel log follows:
