9 Which revision? I based my ebuild on 1.0.1-r1 and I have never been
10 able to suppress text relocations from xineplug_decode_ff.so. Grr, the
11 Xine team remade the ffmpeg build system from scratch using the GNU
12 autotools. Also, when I looked up for 'planar' in Gentoo Bugzilla, I
13 got the famous 'Zarro boogs found' message.

15 But why xineplug_decode_w32dll.so is built even when win32codecs is
16 not in USE? Looks like a build system bug to be resolved upstream.
