Actually, setting WITH_SERVER_ONLY only sets 4 options

WITHOUT_LUA=yes
WITHOUT_QT4=yes
WITH_RUNROOT=yes
WITHOUT_XCB=yes

which I have set anyway. The number of dependencies is still
appalling.

In fact, I have found a solution with ffmpeg, the example command
lines are:

ffmpeg -i file.mp3 -acodec copy -f rtp rtp://239.8.8.8:5000 -re
ffmpeg -f oss -i /dev/dsp -acodec mp2 -f rtp rtp://239.8.8.8:5000 -re

ffmpeg should be compiled WITH_LAME. Multicast stream playback has
been tested with vlc (Windows XP, Fedora Linux) and mplayer (FreeBSD 8).
