it's maybe not really related, but -Os breaks things on amd64. please dont use it.
Really? Hmmm... that might explain some other weird problems I've been having. Is that just a problem with GCC targetting AMD64? I'll try rebuilding with -O3, and if that still breaks, with -O2. We'll see what happens.
Which ncurses version do you have?
sys-libs/ncurses-5.4-r6
Using -O2 and -O3 didn't help anything.
Does it works with -r1?
Failed in exactly the same place in -r1 with -Os. I guess I could try -O2 and -O3, but I don't expect any better results.
Seems like an API problem, I'll see that more deeply soon.
More than an API problem seems like vlc is screwed up and tries to use booleans in a C source file. I've prepared a patch and I'm compiling to see if it works.
Fixed in CVS, thanks for reporting.
