Oh, right.  I stand corrected.  It went in because of a later fix that 
required a DB schema upgrade.  So even though the advice doesn't 
necessarily apply in this case, it's still good advice:  make sure you 
use the same revision on every single Myth box in the system.

Thanks for the correction.
