IIRC there's a risk of breaking things when part-compiling which
is/was mentioned in the configure script. Any reason you don't want to
compile mythfrontend? A backend-only machine is just one this is not
currently running mythfrontend - even if it is installed. If you want
to reclaim the couple of MB mythfrontend occupies you can just delete
the binary. You still need mythtv-setup installed.
