The backslashes were not the problem. The --old-chan-id showed up in the ps 
output.  Plus I verified the script several times.

mythtv   22823 93.6 15.7 83064 81200 ttyp1   R    11:44   4:22 /usr/bin/perl 
-w /usr/bin/tv_grab_na_dd --output /tmp/tv-689815542.xml --days 10 
--old-chan-id

BTW, will having done all this have any ramifications when upgrading to the 
next release of mythtv?
