Comment (by dekarl):

 Roger, some random thoughts before you invest additional time. I've been
 thinking about EIT handling in general and I think that we have to keep
 more of the EIT tables instead of just a cache.

 I was unable to come up with a simple approach to find "vanished" events,
 which I think may be the source of various silent guide corruption issues.
 e.g. the "no guide to see, yet, move along" program being painted on top
 of the programs that are really shown which got signaled later in place of
 the place holder.

 The downside would be that work on the current implementation may become
 redundant.
