Why should anyone want do this? It's a big patch and touches many files. 
I suspect that 0.20 with this backported patch is more likely to be 
broken than a random svn trunk snapshot. I doubt any of the developers 
would want to support the backported patch while bugs in trunk are 
fixed.

ps: have you noticed that live-tv recordings aren't properly expired 
with the multiple-directories patch? just to mention one of the bugs of 
the patch.
