It does not make a difference.
The failure can be seen from this line in the output:
"cd ./libavutil/ && ln -sf libavcodec.so.51 libavutil.so"
which is obviously wrong. Okay so at least I have shown that there was some 
substance to what I was talking about. If you happen to find out what is the 
reason for the anomaly I would be most interested.
