This one was easy, so I just fixed it in CVS.

Interesting.  Could you do something for me?  Try to reproduce this, again, 
but I would like you to continue the backend after getting the backtrace, and 
get another trace.  So, it'd go something like:

TV playback hangs, you hit ctl-c on the frontend gdb, and ctl-c on the backend 
gdb, get both backtraces as before.  Type 'cont' on the backend gdb console, 
wait a second or so, then hit ctl-c again and get another backtrace.  I'd 
like to see all 3, if possible.
