It didn't help; turns out the problem is that I put symlinks in
/var/lib/mythtv to point to my picture repository.  This confuses
"is_subdir()" because it uses .canonicalPath() and the substring search
fails.

2007-10-14 07:28:36.663 is_subdir(/var/lib/mythtv/pictures,/p2/raid6/pictures/kids/applepicking_1999) -> 0
2007-10-14 07:28:36.663 HandleEscape() handled: 0

I have an existing repository on another machine...

If I change is_subdir() to use .absPath() then it works fine and I get the
pleasant navigational experience I want.

I don't know if that will break using a mounted device (which I assume is
a pen drive).  Seems like absPath() is the right thing, however.
