So I was having some issues emerging mplayer again, this time because of a parse error due to an undefined type, "atomic_t", in "/usr/include/linux/fb.h". So the challenge became "where exactly in the linux source code is atomic_t defined?" So after a little Googling, I found exactly what I was looking for:
http://lxr.linux.no/ident
It's a site that will let you search through the kernel source for a
particular identifier. I put in "atomic_t" and find out it's defined in
"asm/atomic.h", and get a list of all the files that reference the symbol,
including "fb.h". So I add
#include <asm/atomic.h>
to the beginning of fb.h, and everything is happy again.
