I've hit a problem with IVTV files already - ffmpeg fails as I don't have
a third stream so the map 0:2 fails.

Copying the failed ffmpeg commandline and substituting -map 0:1 seems to
do the trick so the detection of the audio stream is failing? I'm in a PAL
country so is this the problem?

This is what I get with the original ffmpeg command line:

g8ecj at zeus ~ $ ffmpeg -v 1 -i /mnt/store/2052_20060501200200.mpg -r pal
-target dvd -b 3000 -s 720x576 -ab 192 -copyts -aspect 4:3
/mnt/tmp/mythburn/work/1/newfile2.mpg -map 0:0 -map 0:2

This is what I get with the correct audio stream number:

g8ecj at zeus ~ $ ffmpeg -v 1 -i /mnt/store/2052_20060501200200.mpg -r pal
-target dvd -b 3000 -s 720x576 -ab 192 -copyts -aspect 4:3
/mnt/tmp/mythburn/work/1/newfile2.mpg -map 0:0 -map 0:1

which looks much more encouraging.
