Hmm. Interesting, I have no idea why this has appeared and I haven't
noticed it, since I have lame-libs installed. Let's see... mplayer is
being linked against libmp3lame by the build process, so it's not my
fault. Still, it shouldn't be there. I'm looking into it.

This dependency shouldn't be there in the first place.

Probably not, unless I get more requests than one.
