David,

Since you have a MythTV segfault, please create and submit a backtrace 
(with debug symbols) on a new ticket, as described at 
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging .  A segfault in MythTV is a valid 
issue, and you won't want it associated with an invalid one--so you 
don't want to use this old, invalid ticket.  :)
