It looks as if X in the X:cnt(pnum:1,channum:1) phrase is being wrongly 
set.  the '0' should be in the old-params line, associated with the 
obsolete 79* channel. The non-zero value in the other line is the chanid 
that MythTV will use.  Bug in the post-scan sort?

I see the same in my current-master-head buntu system.
