Nope, I show:

2006-10-18 16:48:45.623 Using runtime prefix = /usr
2006-10-18 16:48:45.778 New DB connection, total: 1
2006-10-18 16:48:45.829 Connected to database 'mythconverg' at host: localhost
2006-10-18 16:48:45.873 Current Schema Version: 1160

All upgraded and working.

Looking at your subsequent response to Ackster, I perhaps wasn't entirely 
clear. The database was upgraded going from 0.18 to 0.20, and the table has 
the progstart/end field. The strange bit was that something like 30% of my 
recordings had no timestamp in progstart/end, while the other 70% did. This 
meant that I had a large chunk of recordings that showed up in MythWeb as 
being from 1970, as it obviously takes the airdate from progstart.
