Well, it seems to be a bit faster, but I still would prefer to
disable the code at compile time (smaler executable).

Also I'm wondering why VDR reports:
Jan 12 23:43:39 video vdr[3098]: CAM: found 2 CAM slots
Jan 12 23:43:43 video vdr[3098]: CAM: no CAM detected

This is obviously not true, as this is a plain DVB card, no CI
board. Shouldn't this read 0 CAM slots?
(and you see that the check takes 4s).

And there is a warning in ci.h:
ci.c: In member function `bool cCiTransportLayer::ResetSlot(int)':
ci.c:492: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions

I think a cast would remove this.
