Hey, that almost works. I built the portable binutils, libiberty,
and gas from the current src/gnu/toolchain directory; installed gas;
exported MAKE_ENV='GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=/usr/local/bin',
ONLY_FOR_PLATFORM='NetBSD-1.[5-9]*-i386', and
MAKECONF='/usr/pkg/etc/gcc-2.95.3.mk'; and now I have mplayer on
1.5.3/i386!!! Pretty neat program -- -framedrop lets me play some
things that I couldn't play before, with aviplay.

Maybe we should package "gas" for 1.5.3*, to build this package with?
Please follow-up to tech-pkg.
