This seems to have become a common issue recently; each time, I think, 
the problem was solved by making sure gcc was using 
-fomit-frame-pointer. I don't know if it is or is not there in your 
compilation, since you didn't copy-n-paste enough text. Go ahead and try 
to figure the problem out, if you can.

If you still have trouble, start a new thread on mplayer-users; this 
particular compilation issue is not related to the old convergence 
errors. Don't forget to follow the bug reporting guidelines and report 
the needed information.
