Since it's looking like someone's going to patch the source for
get_iplayer soon, can I vote for this patch to go in as well?

and I know I can't really vote for my own patch, but there's another one here:
  http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/get_iplayer/2011-February/000803.html
which fixes a bug with creating folders

Cheers
Jon
