Externals will continue to cause some problems in the future though. I
didn't like the libswscale-specific rebuild idea either, IMO adding it
without history would be better. If the svn repositories were created
now I think the right thing to do would be to put MPlayer and FFmpeg in
the same svn repository, which would allow moves like libswscale and
would also avoid MPlayer's external dependency problems with FFmpeg.
However I'm not sure whether it's worth it to try changing that now when
the separate repositories are already in use.

I read it differently, but it's pointless to argue about that as I think
the policy shouldn't be taken too literally anyway.
