A question. Does this need to go on the front-end as well? The way I 
apply this patch is that I just put the two libraries 
libmythbase-0.27.so.0.27.0 and libmythtv-0.27.so.0.27.0 on the backend. 
It seems that the front-end has different libraries with the same name. 
Putting them on the front-end simply doesn't work.

Oh, and I am getting Waited for x.x seconds for data still. I just 
didn't for a long time. I don't know enough about the patch to 
understand if this is a bad sign or not. I am thinking you just 
addressed an issue where you would avoid a read call that you know would 
block. In such case we might still have to wait for data?
