Confirmed that MPlayer doesn't work without ffmpeg. I dispelled ffmpeg
and recompiled MPlayer not electing anything when asked about ffmpeg or
ffmpeg-cvs. Sure enough it bombed out.

However I than tryied MPlayer-cvs, which chose to install ffmpeg-cvs
without asking me and it still failed to compile as well speaking about
kernel headers.


Though I have yet to try Andy's suggestion below to see if this will fix
the problem.
