A bit more. The above needs buildlink3.mk includes for the two packages.

It also needs recent faad2 - I had 2.0nb9 installed; vlc build failed
due to some structure elements missing. Upgrade to 2.6.1 sorted this.

Also my ffmpeg was installed with options lame and vorbis switched on;
the final link of vlc failed to notice this - I guess I  should have
added
--with-ffmpeg-mp3lame  and --with-ffmpeg-vorbis to the Makefile.

I also compiled vlc with skins enabled. This works, but you get the familiar:

: Error detected by libpthread: Unlocking unlocked mutex.

and it coredumps; I therefore have to run it with:

PTHREAD_DIAGASSERT=A exec /usr/pkg/bin/vlc etc.

The last compilation does not do this anymore for some reason.
