Just thinking aloud, is it possibe to run a script after the modules
have loaded that detects which is what, then sets up some symlinks, so
that /dev/dvb/adaptor2 is always the DVB-S card and /dev/dvb/adaptor3 is
the DVB-T, then use the 2 and 3 devices in your myth configuration.

something like:

IF 

udevinfo -a -p $(udevinfo -q path -n /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0)|grep
01:06

THEN

ln -s /dev/dvb/adaptor0 /dev/dvb/adaptor2
ln -s /dev/dvb/adaptor1 /dev/dvb/adaptor3

ELSE

ln -s /dev/dvb/adaptor0 /dev/dvb/adaptor3
ln -s /dev/dvb/adaptor1 /dev/dvb/adaptor2

ENDIF


(no thats not in any particular language, just trying to show the logic
