for the record I am compiling for source. I am quite comfortable with
patching and running wireshark. Lets just say I know enough C/C++ and some
QT to be dangerous. If you want I will still write the ticket up, but I
want your opinion on my findings. (I had to used wireshark to see
mythfilldatabase was doing a lookup with my local domain name first.)
