I've probably missed something really obvious but: What does this do?

Adds an extra path to check for get_iplayer (on Linux systems - i.e. /usr/local/bin as opposed to just /usr/bin - which will depend on the distro). As it's a CGI I guess it's from the web-frontend for the PVR, but I've never used that nor dug into the get_iplayer code so I'm not sure.

It's not related to the - much discussed - recent changes by the BBC.

Aside: unusual for this to appear on the list - patches normally via github pull request, I guess?

Cheers,
Stu
