Well once nemesi is well-tested and known to work with no regressions,
the live555 support should be removed entirely, to get the last of the
C++ code out of mplayer. Not only is this a matter of cleanliness; it
would also be nice to force the change so that distributors switch to
nemesi and don't keep bunding the huge C++ bloatware dependencies that
increase load-time.
