Comment(by anonymous):

 Problem was manifest on both Linux and Mac. Changeset 11174 changed the
 !MythMainWindow initialization sequence. In the case of no database, it
 was being created without being initialised.

 There is still an old problem, that if the DB address is not routable
 (''e.g.'' set DBHostName to 1.2.3.4), it will take many minutes for all
 the connection attempts to time out. This can be reduced by putting
 MSqlQuery::testDBconnection() in key places (''e.g.''
 MythMainWindow::!RegisterKey() and
 MythContextPrivate::!PromptForDatabaseParams()), but that is a problem for
 another ticket.
