Comment (by oa at iki.fi):

 Okay, with this patch I've got the message twice in three hours, five
 minutes apart. The spam is over :)

 Regarding the message itself - if I interpret it correctly, the program #
 is referring to a serviceid in a multiplex. The errors I'm seeing are
 referring to two channels (401 and 353) that do not exist in the broadcast
 signal on a regular basis. In both cases the PAT dump lists the other
 channels on the same multiplex, so Myth has tuned to the right multiplex.
 However, I *never* access the channels in question, so it's a bit
 surprising that the error messages refer to them, especially using the
 phrase "desired program not found in PAT".

 If I may suggest an improvement, right now there are three "lines" of
 message: one with the generic "rescan" message, one with the PAT dump, and
 one with the program ID referred to as "desired". It would be very helpful
 to a user if these messages were merged to one stating something like:
 "Program #401 (channel name) not found in PAT on multiplex xx where it
 used to exist. Multiplex contents may have changed, please rescan your
 transports.", and this was available through the frontend system
 information log entries instead of just in the log file.
