It is not possible to compile mplayer with --enable-debug, because you can't
compile cabac.h in libavcodec with all optimizations when debugging is turned on.
Three possible solutions:
1) Don't configure with enable-debug
2) Use -fomit-frame-pointer:
Copy the line beginning with "cc" ending with "-c -o h264.o h264.c" and add
"-fomit-frame-pointer": This might affect debugging for h264.o
3) Don't compile the optimized code: Add "#undef HAVE_EBX_AVAILABLE" to
libavcodec/cabac.h
