You're right, I'm trying to build from a tarball I'm generating from an 
hg checkout, and I omitted this info, sorry about that.
I'd rather build from an "official" tarball, but it seems neither 
Torsten nor Petri do have enough privileges to make that happen and 
Darren is not around for quite some time...

Here's how I generate the tarball :
- Go into the hg checkout directory
- Remove .cvsrelease file
- Run ./autogen.sh
- Run make dist
- Build an rpm from the tarball using mock.

The spec file does run autoreconf. It is available here, but I have some 
local changes waiting for a proper xine-lib 1.2.8 release :
https://pkgs.rpmfusion.org/cgit/free/xine-lib.git/plain/xine-lib.spec

It worked until a couple days/weeks ago, but I'll start from a fresh hg 
checkout and retry to make sure.

Regards,
Xavier
