[mythtv-users] Doing a "scan for games" in mythgame hangs mythfrontend, rails cpu.

I recently reinstalled my OS on my myth machine due to drive issues, in the
past I used mythgame and it worked very well.  I'm running an SVN version of
myth I checked out about a week ago (rev 18641).  When I try to "scan for
games" my frontend freezes, I can alt-tab back to my terminal and kill the
mythfrontend session and restart it but I have no way to populate the
mythgame table.  The cpu rails and the LCD shows that it's scanning but the
frontend is frozen.

  The only player I have setup currently is mupen64plus and the rom
directory only has like 24 roms in it.  The frontend doesn't spit out any
messages when it crashes, I tried doing a few -v switches but nothing looked
like a cause for the crash.  What should I do to get this working?

Thanks,
-Greg
