Mplayer won't build with libdvdnav 0.1.9, which is now the latest version
in debian testing (packages "libdvdnav4" and "libdvdnav-dev").

The first problem is that in config.h, DVDNAVVERSION is defined as 019,
which is interpreted by gcc as an octal number (because it starts with 0),
but is not a valid octal number because it includes a 9.

The next problem is that DVDNAV_SEEK_DONE is not defined.  Presumably this
was removed from dvdnav.h.

I think there were 1 or 2 other error messages, but I didn't take time to
investigate.  mplayer only looks for a version of libdvdnav > 0.1.2, so I
was able to do "apt-get remove libdvdnav4 libdvdnav-dev ; apt-get install
libdvdnav-dev/stable" to go back to 0.1.3, with which mplayer works fine.
