--------------------------------------+---------------------
 In mythtv/programs/mythbackend/scheduler.cpp, the method
 Scheduler::CalcTimeToNextHandleRecordingEvent().  The fourth parameter,
 prerollseconds, is not used.  So, it returns a number that assumes that
 parameter is zero.  This means that, in Scheduler::run(), the scheduler
 goes to sleep for too long around the first LOG() line, so the
 RecordPreRoll parameter doesn't actually work, because the scheduler
 sleeps through the intended start time.

 I've patched my mythbackend locally to fix the problem, but I don't know
 whether or not my fix has unintended negative consequences.  My lightly
 tested patch against 0.25.2 is attached.
