OK, I've made the changes as suggested above and successfully ran
tv_validate_grabber a couple of times (once with the supplied
test.conf and once with my production configuration).  As before, the
code can be viewed at:

* https://github.com/akgrant43/XMLTV/blob/huro_retry/grab/huro/tv_grab_huro.in

The patch can be viewed with:

* https://github.com/akgrant43/XMLTV/commit/44d53215ddb6865ff85e533c8fd7049db7958221#diff-0430f28879ec294f84b1cf139b10ad96

The file also contains the modifications for the retry, which are
still a work-in-progress.

Please let me know what you think (about the category sorting).

Thanks,
Alistair
