Well, the fix is trivial.  In the .spec file, do:

%define xvmclib         XvMCW


instead of XvMCNVidia.

Also...  I'd suggest changing configure to:

_xvmc=auto

instead.  The auto test seems to work fine.

BTW:  Where can I get FC3 RPMS (x86_64) for mp3lame-devel?  I
checked the usual locations, but no joy.

I'll try that next, after I successfully build mplayer-1.0pre7try2-1.spec...
