After downloading the libmpeg2 snapshot and building it I realized that
libmpeg2-configure checks for altivec.h and enables altivec if that file
is present. And it is not possible to pass --enable/disable-altivec to 
force support on/off.

I can't see any makefiles/conditions that excludes idct_altivec.c and 
motion_comp_altivec.c from the build process if altivec support is missing,
and it is not possible for me to build these altivec-enabled files without 
passing the altivec-flags to gcc.

My conclusion is that it should be impossible to build libmpeg2 (on sf)
for powerpc with a gcc that has no support for altivec, but I have not
it since I have no compiler without altivec support.

mplayer has the nice feature --disable/enable-altivec so we need to 
conditionally choose the altivec sources depending on if altivec is 
enabled or disabled.

So I would say my patch is correct... =)
