I have two much easier hacks, take your pick. :-)
1) create an /etc/rc.modules file containing:
#!/bin/sh
modprobe cx88_dvb
rc.sysinit looks for the existence of this file, and executes it if found,
well before mythbackend starts up.
2) add cx88_dvb to the "other" variable on line 151 of rc.sysinit, and it'll
get loaded immediates after udev starts up. This is what I'm currently doing
for the dvb-bt8xx module for my HD-2000, which also fails to auto-start
(oddly, the Air2PC driver on the same box actually loads fine without any
help)...
