So no luck on the new packages.  I'm not sure if its actually getting 
compiled in.  I recall you mentioning you were have problems and it was 
being ignored by configure.  When I do a mythfrontend --version I would 
expect to see something like using_cec or using_libcec.  I don't see 
that, but I could be wrong.  I also don't see mythfrontend linked 
against libcec.  But it's possible that they aren't linking against the 
library and just reading raw from the /dev/tty.  In that case all my 
assumptions would be incorrect.
