The regression is that dvdnav is enabled by default. If there will be a
release that definitely should be changed.
Btw. is there a static dvdnav that we could link against our included
dvdcss? If dvdnav/dvdread uses dlsym in a sane way I think even just
configure --enable-libdvdcss-internal should work...
