I suspect that you use different encoding options, or that the defaults
are different on KnoppMyth and FC. Maybe you should try to append
'turbo' to you encoding option line.

These are the so-called "front-ends". They are supposed to get the
options you gave to XviD through mencoder command line, and give a
properly initialized structure (with respect to default encoding
parameters and your options) to XviD coded library.
Depending on the XviD version that you use, post-XviD-1.x.x use
ve_xvid4.c and pre (9.x and intermediate dev versions) use ve_xvid4.c
