One other important datapoint here, that I just realized:  The video
capture hard lockup that I had experienced about 2 weeks ago was in fact
while running stock 2.6.9 with the new tuners patch applied and nothing
else.  So unless the fix you mention is only in a -ac patch past 2.6.9
then either the problem is still present or I am dealing with another kind
of problem.
