Ok…  Of course it didn't break PowerTV - but I was getting pretty
triggerhappy about that platform anyway.

So while I've queued the patch to remove PowerTV support, I'm more than
happy to remove it again if somebody shows up and promises to test and
take care of the platform.  And such threats seem to work most efficient
with the proper patch bomb attached.

That of course doesn't affect your patch which I'm going to apply.
