Well, I can rebuild the system easily enough since I didn't build X
or any of its dependencies and I have a very speedy box here so things
should happen quickly. All I installed was libogg, libvorbis, and libmad
and the live555.com stuff. None of the other mplayer dependencies. Oh,
and of course alsa but that is it. So you should be able to test it
easily enough from a chroot I'd think. Would be interesting to see if
you got the same results or if the newer headers make any difference.
