I called it 0.18.2 because on http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ its called the
'stable 0.18.2 branch'.  I guess you are correct that its the 0-18-fixes
branch.

It should be the 0-18-fixes branch as I went here when 0.18.1 wouldn't
compile on FC4 with gcc 4.x last time.  

To make absolutely sure, I've just checked out a clean copy of the
0-18-fixes branch with "svn co
http://svn.mythtv.org/svn/branches/release-0-18-fixes/mythtv", used
"./configure  --enable-dvb
--dvb-path=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.14-1.1656_FC4-i686/include
--enable-lirc" as my configure string, and started a make (after a qmake
mythtv.pro of course).  Same problem again.  This worked absolutely fine
on FC4 last year.  I just checked my config.log, and the successful make
was in July last year.
