Ah, this explains the need for FillPMap() in the your patch the other
day. Anyway, wouldn't this break EIT on ATSC streams? I think it
makes more sense to get rid of the SIScan altogether for EIT and
just connect the SIParser in dvbchannel directly to the EITHelper
class. That way the SIParser is always properly initialized, and
there isn't all this unrelated EIT stuff in the SIScan class.

I'm chasing down that problem with MPEG-TS stream changes right now.
As soon as I solve that I'll look at this EIT issue.
