The fix was added to 0.19-fixes in r9193
(http://cvs.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/9193). The latest atrpms.net
release contains backports/fixes up to r10138
(http://atrpms.net/dist/fc5/mythtv/mythtv-backend-0.19-129.rhfc5.at.i386.rpm.html)
so it should be in there. I'm running a very recent SVN, but haven't
noticed any problems with my PVR cards.
