Which should be relatively soon.  Downtime for my setup was just over an
hour, my wife was very happy to see the new UI and themes in general.

I'd say give it a try anyway.  Do a qpkg media-video/mythtv
x11-themes/mythtv-themes and whatever plugins you have, back-up the database
and have a go for it.   At worst, you spend 5 minutes installing the
backed-up binaries if something goes awry.  :)
