[MPlayer-dev-eng] Patch for configure to automatically find gcc3 on RH systems

[Malcolm]

Hi all,

Been lurking for some time following the development of this fine
application.  Congrats to all involved for getting it this far.
I don't have a whole bunch of time to contribute stuff I'm afraid, but
here is a small patch to 'configure' to make it look for gcc3 which is
what RH users' working gcc is called if they install the corresponding
rpm's (or do full install like I often lazily do). It will only do this
when it finds a broken gcc.

Constructive criticism welcomed (I will crawl quietly back into my hole
if you tell me to go RTF man sh ;-)

Malc.
