I just tried both suggestions, and symlinking ldd did nothing, but adding
the --with-extralibdir parameter to the configure line made mplayer find
lame perfectly! Rejoice. Seems a bit odd since when I did a verbose output
of that part of gcc, it was supposed to also look in /usr/local/lib, but
apparently this parameter does something special.

Hopefully this will help out some other folks. Used a straight
out-of-the-box configure for lame, and with the extralibdir parameter to
mplayer, all works perfectly.

Many thanks!
