Fixes compile errors in LL copy of Quicktime. Not in the Apple download
version.
Problem source is VS2010 delivers stdint.h which clashes with the one from
Quicktime.
I cloned 3p-quicktime and with autobuild build and package have the
libraries. The procedure worked extremely well.
Yay!
Then, I modified autobuild.xml to point to the local
copy. Now the catch, since QuickTimePlugin.cmake has:

I commented out the if(INSTALL_PROPRIETARY) and then it pulled from
the local copy with autobuild.xml set to the location
and md5sum printed as output of autobuild package
command.

This is a good general issue.
My feeling is that we should add a switch for each of these optional
packages. The per-package switch (in this case, perhaps
INSTALL_PKG_QUICKTIME) would replace INSTALL_PROPRIETARY everywhere it is
used to make a package-specific decision now, and in one of the common
cmake
files we add a block that provides default values for all the INSTALL_PKG_*
switches based on INSTALL_PROPRIETARY.
We don't need to do this for every package - it's not worth the trouble to
do it for things that everyone has access to, but having a pattern to use
for the ones that have some distribution limitations seems useful.

Yes.
