wrong, a proper mythtv DB would be totally broken if that step is
ommitted.

I've deleted the patch since it would cause severe damage on a correct
mythtv DB. If the char set was already proper utf8 (against all mythtv
setup instructions), changing the DB schema version manually to 1217 is
the only needed step.
