I am also seeing the same problem with commflagging, it starts then dies 
leaving myth thinking that its still running. Clicking buttons in myth 
does nothing. So far the only thing I have found that works is to run 
the job from cron with the process all unflagged option. I start the job 
at 10 after the hour every hour.
