Its all commited. Sorry I missed it last time.. Just blame John.. :)

Can you please include a dbcheck.cpp diff next time.. Would make applying this

As long as it does something useful I am OK with it. Eventually we might need
to look for commonality in all the fixup scripts and clean it up that way, but
for now its OK.. No need for a refactor yet.. I can already see a few that
split the title into subtitle via some deliminator.. No need for that more than
once..

What do you mean segmented eit? Segmented EIT is a way the table and sections
are handled.. Do you mean your extended text descriptors need to be
concatenated in some way? If so please feel free to send a patch for this,
since I don't have anything like that here at all..
