Note, also, that mythfilldatabase will always autogenerate a programid 
from XMLTV data when safe to do so (when we have season and episode 
information).  So, if Shepherd must stuff data directly into our 
database instead of using mythfilldatabase like everyone else, perhaps 
it should be fixed to do proper programid generation, like our XMLTV 
code, instead of adding a hack in here to work around Shepherd's 
shortcomings?
