[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] Revised description of --with-xvmclib configure option

Currently, the description in ./configure --help of the --with-xvmclib
option does not accurately reflect what that option requires. This patch
corrects it.

I'm still not entirely certain that this is correct. What happens is
that the parameter LIBNAME passed to the option gets passed on to gcc,
in the form -lLIBNAME. By the best of my understanding, this means that
gcc will look for the file libLIBNAME.a; however, the description
mentions instead libLIBNAME.so. I'm not sufficiently confident in my
understanding to change that, but I did want to point it out; if the
name mentioned is incorrect, then whoever applies the patch should feel
free to change that as well.
