After some updates of system (including revdep-rebuild of packages depending on new media-libs/jpeg-7 such as mplayer) mplayer (1.0_rc2_p20090731 as early and later version) stop recognize it's option "fontconfig" (early it works fine): $mplayer test.avi The fontconfig option can't be used in a config file. Error parsing option fontconfig=1 at line 132 Warning unknown option subfont-osd-scale at line 133 Warning unknown option subfont-text-scale at line 134 Due to this trouble there is no OSD and Subtitle support (and mplayer doesn't start untill comment this options) During retrying of re-emerging of mplayer I saw that in process of "configure" it can't find some installed lybraries (they also were re-emerging again after appearence of error): >>> Configuring source in /mnt/distrib/tmp/portage/media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc2_p20090731/work/mplayer-1.0_rc2_p20090731 ... .....

I find some identical problem of configure script of mplayer in Archlinux: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/12653 maybe this info help to resolve bug.
On my system, emerge mplayer halts at: ... Checking for cdparanoia ... no Checking for libcdio ... yes Checking for bitmap font support ... yes Checking for freetype >= 2.0.9 ... If I kill that process, it just halts later. However, the following gets through the configure script: FEATURES=-sandbox emerge mplayer Just like in the Arch bug report, I have nvidia and using sandbox to execute the freetype testing tool doesn't work (in my case, a call to futex() never finishes). However, setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LD_PRELOAD don't help (does sandbox use them?).

I get the same problem here if I add the openal use flag, also confirmed by a friend of mine who had this problem. So if you don't use openal remove its use flag and it should work as a workaround at least.
I can confirm this Without openal USE flag configure is done well
I also confirm that problem was solved by using USE="-openal" for mplayer. Thanks for resolution of problem. I consider that it is necessary to left this this bug as unresolved due to the actuality of it at present time.
Looks like this is a duplicate of #286866, where the same 'solution' were found: http://bugs.gentoo.org/286866 via: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=741422 via another duplicate: http://bugs.gentoo.org/288196
