That's not much of a problem, I did it in my old packages.
The patches are very old and against 0.90, but I still have them.
I'll rewrite them against main cvs when I get back to win32 dev.

Nice.

Yes, but do all of mplayer's features work under mingw?
It has been a long time since I tried, and I know much work
has been done since.  I haven't done it yet because if it
proves to cause any problems, I won't have time to deal with
them at the same time as the things I'm already working on.

Also, this has gotten off-topic.  I apologize.  If you would
like, Sacha, we can continue talking about win32 stuff off of
g2's list.  I think that we should work together at some of
these things.
