Oh, that reminds me. Runtime cpu detection is one big reason to compile mplayer on you own machine -- runtime detection is bit buggy, and not perfect too.

This doesnt work out properly, because if standard CFLAGS are not used, it
will be compiled and optimised for the "packager's system" , so using
standard cflags is a must as it will work on all systems without
modification. Theres no alternative. Besides, it works fairly well with
runtime cpu detection.
