I'm pretty sure issues can be disabled per repo.

Yes.

Though for PRs I think they could be useful for some contributions.
Like very contained, simple or smallish changes. And yes that would
would mean more work on the surface, but probably not more work in
total per MPlayer developer, as otherwise the changes wouldn't be
submitted at all and the work would have to be done by one of us
developers.

I would say accepting PRs should be considered. Though as long as
we stay on SVN, the merging will create different commit ids and
github and their UI will not detect they are merged.
