I did go ahead and edit it on my system and I'm working now (and I'll still get 
eventual packaged updates), but I do think that a release (with packaged 
release) should still be considered:

- even though it is a small change, it does mean that the current command line 
does not work as advertised which would be annoying for users who call this in 
batch mode (like cron).

- since tv_grab_na_dd seems to be pretty stable right now it could be a long 
time before enough else comes along to warrant a release, therefore this bug 
could be in the current packaged release for quite a while.
