Comment (by danielk):

 This is the first DVB driver we've seen that fubars the PAT, the other
 broken DVB drivers just munge the PMT. I added it to the list of broken
 drivers, and made the PSIP validation ignore the PAT in addition to the
 PMT for broken DVB implementations.

 Please inform the DVB folks about the problem with your drivers, they
 should fix the CRC, if the hardware always provides tables with invalid
 CRC.

 MythTV should not have to do all this work to work around hardware bugs
 that could easily be hidden by the driver for that hardware.
