Comment (by beirdo):

 Actually, gave it a quick look-see anyways, and I found what is likely the
 true issue.  In the backend's main.cpp, we are calling setHttpProxy()
 before initializing gCoreContext (and gContext).  setHttpProxy(), if
 configured to use a proxy, will attempt to ping the proxy, via
 myth_system, which is only usable with gCoreContext initialized.

 I'll be committing a fix for this shortly.  I don't think that the patches
 you have provided are bad, necessarily, but they are also not really
 fixing the problem.
