[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] ev4, ev5, ev56 patch

[Andrew A. Gill]

Here's the patch for ev4, ev5, and ev56 with GCC-3.  As I said before, 
there's no MVI in DEC Alpha processors prior to the pca56.  I have tested 
this patch and it seems to work.

I would appreciate it if you patched it, since others probably are having 
similar problems.

You can pry my ev56 out of my cold, dead hands!
