Untar'ing the file will overwrite a few key files in mythmusic: 
dbcheck.cpp, main.cpp, metadata.cpp playlist.cpp and smartplaylist.cpp. 
If you are running SVN then svn diff will then give you a patch... 
Personally I'd prefer a diff to SVN head too (this untar/overwrite 
method is similar to how Joomla releases patches which always annoyed me 
but is totally understandable to deal with windows users and webservers 
- ohhh going OT ;) )

Not really. I did have a plan a while ago called MetaLibrarian and it's 
really just a scaled down version of that built into Myth directly. 
While I still like the concept of doing a MetaLibrarian project at some 
point, time is not my friend at the moment... :)
