Summary: tv_grab_fi can't handle DST shift?

Initial Comment:
Grabber tv_grab_fi, version 1.65 gives following error:
http://pastebin.com/UjWe7ynT

Offset day is 27th Mar 2011 which is the one when we shift to summer time. The problem does not occur when grabbing for 26th or 28th Mar 2011. Also this problem does not exist with tv_grab_fi version 1.60, but only with 1.61 and newer.

Message:
I've checked in the tv_grab_fi which fixes this problem. It contains a
check that should detect this situation and not throw away the data for the
whole day.

Actually the problem is with broken telkku.com data for MTV3 on
27-Mar-2011:

07.00 Voittovisa
07.50 Ostoskanava
07.20 F1 Ennakkolähetys
07.50 Dino, pikku dinosaurus
08.15 Superpahisten liiga

Since the last web site update the quality of the telkku.com data has gone
downhill :-/

The above data leads the code to think that there are more than 2 day
changes. Unfortunately the old code doesn't check for this situation and
that causes the error message. The new code for the tv_grab_fi rewrite just
ignores the broken data. I guess it is time to release it...
