I had the same problem yesterday with the same revision number (23487). 
I, too, checked out a new version of x264, but that made no difference. 
However, I noticed that the configure.log said:

============ Checking for x264 ============
[...]
Result is: yes (in libavcodec: yes)

so the x264 library was recognized (1st "yes") and the libavencoders 
list was recognized (2nd "yes"). Therefore, the x264 installation wasn't 
the problem. Stumped at this & at the end of my day, I figured I'd just 
wait until the next day's update.

This morning, I ran an svn update, got 23491, ran make distclean and 
make. It compiled without complaint. Thanks to the team. Whatever was 
the problem is now gone.
