I cannot compile AVIFile under Mandrake Linux 10.0 Official. I tried 
using the most recent CVS version and it still does not work. In the 
file ffmpeg/libavcodec/ffv1.c, I receive an internal compiler error.

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../../include -DHAVE_AV_CONFIG_H -I./.. 
-Wall -Wno-unused -I../../include -O4 -mcpu=i686 -march=i686 -ffast-math 
-fomit-frame-pointer -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 
-D_GNU_SOURCE -Wp,-MD,.deps/ffv1.pp -c ffv1.c     -fPIC -DPIC -o ffv1.lo
ffv1.c: In function `encode_rgb_frame':
ffv1.c:465: internal compiler error: in find_function_data, at 
function.c:329
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <URL:https://qa.mandrakesoft.com/> for instructions.

I tried to submit a full bug report to MandrakeSoft, but the site is 
really slow and does not tell me how to do it, how to submit a full 
preprocessed source. The Mandrake 10 distribution is using GCC 3.3.2. I 
tried to use ./configure to disable the ffmpeg support, since the bug 
comes from a file in the ffmpeg directory, but it do not want to disable 
ffmpeg completely. The options simply have no effect.
Since the last news on avifile.sourceforge.net dates back to July 2003, 
is AVIFile still maintained? If not, is there some alternative I could 
use to process AVI files with DivX from Linux, without using the Wine 
emulator which does not work at all for me?
Thanks in advance
