   The error you're getting is 'cause that src code is checking for 
RedHat's 2.96 and can't tell that Mandrake's 2.96 is a completely 
different animal.   

Mandrake version of mplayer is here
   mplayer-0.50-2mdk  rpm (or src.rpm) 
   http://lis.snv.jussieu.fr/~rousse/linux/plf/

   or if you do use the src (note from Mandrake rpm)
Note: in order to run out-of-the-box on any pentium-class computer, 
all optimisations have been disabled. To achieve better performances, 
get the source package, remove all '--disable-xxx' lines in the
configuration stage, and rebuild.

     or you can just use the vanilla src code, but use

     ./configure  --disable-gcc-checking

    So you've got 3 choices, edit the heck out'a the src code, 
disable gcc checking, or just install the Mandrake rpm. I used the 
Mandrake src.rpm, works great :)
