	I have difficulty building libmp1e because it uses pthreads routines
	not present:

	While the usual pthread_create() and so on are present the
	pthread_rwlock_* routines (and associated data definitions, structures,
	etc) are not.

	It seems that systems vary widely in the completeness of their 
	threads implementations - so threading a program introduces portability
	problems.

	If libmp1e is not required for the "normal" MPlayer functionality of
	playing DVDs and MPEG files it would be a Good Thing to have 
	./configure skip over libmp1e.

	Thanks.
