Well, since I can't get a backtrace (and my messages for help haven't
garnered a workable solution for me as of yet) I've done a little
digging into the mythvideo problem.

I have overlapping NFS mounts for my video collection, given that it
sits on multiple volumes on my server, as such:

mediaserver:/usr/local/media/movies           /mnt/media/movies
mediaserver:/usr/local/media/movies/other     /mnt/media/movies/other
mediaserver:/usr/local/media/movies/dvdrip    /mnt/media/movies/dvdrip

List view works when I unmount both of the latter 2 mount points, but as
soon as I mount either of them, boom.  Segfault with this
in /var/log/messages:

kernel: mythfrontend[20451]: segfault at 00000004006cde2c rip
0000002a9640e173 rsp 0000007fbfffe120 error 4

Thinking that it might be something in one of the latter 2 mounted dirs,
I moved all but one file into a .j/ directory, so that Video Manager
wouldn't pick them up.  Still got the segfault.  I'm now going back to
previous CVS builds of mythvideo I have on the system (recompiling for
x86-64) to see if I can narrow things down...
