My tone is entirely because of the responses I've received up to this point. > I didn't just pull random version of > SVN to use with my latest release.

You did _not_ do that for the version you've included in R5A22. That's a fact, not something that can be argued.

Check the header in libs/libmyth/mythcontext.h for the actual vesion number. This can be confusing for someone who's never used svn before. I just checked, and the posted instructions for how to grab the release-0-18-fixes branch work perfectly.
