you need several patches due to gcc and ffmpeg changes; I suggest you
try to build the Debian/Ubuntu source, which is already patched

##get the source
$ apt-get source mplayer

##install build dependencies
# apt-get build-dep mplayer

#to build, cd inside the mplayer source dir, then
$ dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc

Cheers,
Lorenzo
