That's what I was afraid of - a mfdb didn't update that table.  I'm using
the non-high-res versions of the icons - or, at least, I'm trying to.

Very weird that the mfdb that updates the icon map downloads icons, but
doesn't update the db.

Hmmm - I tried something different this time: I reset the icon map, and then
just ran mfdb.  Now, I have some icons listed.  It didn't move them to my
MYTHCONFDIR, though.
