So, I was just upgrading my BE to v0.25-beta-99-gff73126 and it
wouldn't start via upstart (i.e. service mythtv-backend start), so I
tried starting it at a prompt:
# su - mythtv -c "mythbackend"

An interactive prompt? Huh? So I hit RETURN and:
There are also other clients using this database. They should be shut down first.

So yeah, it was an interactive prompt in the backend (read: daemon)
startup. Deamon's by their very nature are not supposed to expoect
to have a tty and therefore be allowed to interact.
