Honestly I dont give a d$#^ ! Alex should have looked trough the whole diff
and understand the fact that the previous revision was send in january.
If he had committed the patch sooner maybe this would not be an issue.
And why rejecting a good patch adding many needed feature just for a
f$%^#%g bracket! Way to go, just remove all my work.

If my help is not needed fine from now on I will keep my improvement for
myself. I was the one maintaining this file if I can do as I see fit 
what the freaking point.
oh and thanks to Arpi for being so quick a disabling cvs account.

And yes I subscribed to mplayer-cvs-log.
