This patch adds the instructions for setting CFLAGS (and the
warning not to do it) to the output of configure --help. I
generated it with the following commands:
cp configure configure2
/* edit configure2 */
diff -Naur configure configure2
I hope that that was the correct procedure.
I do not know if you require the patch as an attachment. It is
inline because I am posting via Gmane (I am most certainly not
an MPlayer developer and don't wish to join the list just for
this) and this form does not let me send attachments.

It will try to autodetect all configuration options. If you --enable an option
it will be forcefully turned on, skipping autodetection. This can break
compilation, so you need to know what you are doing.

+MPlayer compilation will use the CPPFLAGS/CFLAGS/LDFLAGS set by you, but:

+It is strongly recommended to let MPlayer choose the correct CFLAGS!
+To do so, execute 'CFLAGS= ./configure <options>'
