If I understand correctly distros now are forced to create their own
scripts/hacks that break when MythTV changes a detail in their config or
database schema?  (Or tell their users to fix it themselves if it
breaks...)

I think the best solution is to either make MythTV a bit more clever so
that it just waits itself, or include a "mythtv-wait" tool that knows
where to find the necessary configs and waits if needed (you can then
use this tool in whatever init system you want).
