I have been having this for awhile. I recompiled with debug and got a 
trace but need to do it again with the latest version. The last thing in 
my log is always the RESCHEDULED -1 command. The dump showed a few 
threads dealing with delete_thread and stuff related to the show delete. 
I have a script that keeps mythbackend going but it is getting old and 
will try some more debugging this weekend.
