[MPlayer-dev-eng] OS X build

After getting tired of teaching people how to build mplayer on OS X, I
decided to make my own binary package.

You can find it on http://monkeyboy.td.org.uit.no/~svein/mplayer/ - it
sets sane configuration options (if you let it), and automatically
activates freetype/fontconfig/ass support. Entirely self-contained.

More to the point, it's a universal binary.

It does *not* have a GUI, and dvd support was broken at the time I
compiled it, so that's out. I also don't *have* a dvd drive.

Now, then.. I'm having a hard time finding testers. I'd love for this
to eventually become an semi-official release, mostly so I can point
people at a single package instead of having to spend half an hour
setting up fink and compiling mplayer, but before that - any comments?
Suggestions? Does it work on Tiger at all?
