Check with the latest CVS (though there were no modification
made for your reported problem - but just to be sure...)

remove  config.cache file - for some reason this weird value got there
(haven't you pressed ctrl+c during configuration ??? - in such
case  config.cache might be eventually trashed somehow)

Could be also solved with  config.cache removement
(when you run  autogen.sh - there is said this:

  Please remove the file config.cache after changing your setup
  so that configure will find the changes next time.

config.cache usually speedups processing - but sometimes it might
be problematic - I assume the script which check Xvid is a bit buggy
and when command line options are given it should ignore cached values.

sure :) at least somehow 

rm config.cache
configure
