@Reinhard: right, and the jaunty kernel is indeed built with CONFIG_NEON
off which implies it wont expose the neon hwcap.  However people with
the affected hardware should run jaunty and karmic can assume sane
hardware and neon in the kernel in a near future.

Dave poked Måns Rullgård over email who explained among other things
that ffmpeg wouldn't do feature runtime detection on ARM until we have a
better kernel interface; so there's nothing desirable in trunk for
runtime detection.  There might be more optimizations in trunk.

Måns Rullgård recommended the ld.so hwcaps for now which should be
simple to uncomment in the rules    :-)
