You are using a version from before Oct 5th 2005. This is probably
fixed in http://cvs.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/7391 though the
description doesn't specify this obscure case.

For yucks, try temporarily raising the channel priority for
286 by 1 in TV Settings->Recording Priorities->Channel Priorities.
This should change the 03:35 and 05:00 showings' total priority to 8.
