trying to compile mplayer i ran into a problem - sdl output doesnt compile. i
tracked it down via configure.log:

============ Checking for SDL ============
1.2.5
1.2.5

#include <SDL.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { return 0; }

gcc    /tmp/mplayer-conf-15477-9589.c -o /tmp/mplayer-conf-2744-9589.o
-I/usr/include/SDL -D_REENTRANT -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread
/usr/lib/libSDL.so: undefined reference to `GGI_bootstrap'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

ldd /tmp/mplayer-conf-2744-9589.o
ldd: /tmp/mplayer-conf-2744-9589.o: No such file or directory

Result is: no

i just tried to:

USE="-ggi" emerge libsdl

and problem disappeared. hope this helps.

well, I compiled libsdl with USE="ggi" and then I compiled mplayer pre6-r2, and
it worked like a charm.  I wonder if you might try that and report back?
