I cannot identify the exact commit as my knowledge of CVS syntax is 
somewhat limited. I should be able to access a log of my terminal that 
will show what files were commited between my two compiles.

I know that they generally belong in mplayer-users but I thought I 
should post it here because it is 1. regarding the CVS and 2. the users 
aren't the developers. I didn't supply very much information because 
there isn't much to give other than my computer stats which I'm giving 
now. Other than the application appearing in the mac os x dock out of 
place the operation is exactly the same.

Mac OS X 10.3.9
iBook G4 1.2GHz
gcc version 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1495)
