 In SVN TRUNK i am experienceing mythtvosd crashing the frontend on some
 occasions.

 My setup...

 A. Master Backend
 B. Slave Backend
 C. Mysql Server / Asterisk box
 D. Mythfrontend

 My phonecalls come in through box C and i pass the callerid info from
 asterisk to mythtvosd through a bash shell script passing variables on the
 command line. Below is the script i made...

  #!/bin/bash
  TIME=`date +%r`
  DATE=`date +%D`
  mythtvosd --bcastaddr=10.0.1.198 --template=cid --caller_name="$2"
 --caller_number="$1" --caller_time="$TIME" --caller_date="$DATE"

 It works just fine for a while (5-6 phone calls) but eventualy the
 frontend box D stops showing the osd when a call arrives.  Usualy about
 3-4 calls after that the front end will segfault immidiately when the
 mythtvosd is run on box C.

 Problem is consistent and reproduceable except for the amount of times it
 will work before stopping the display.
