It's amd64 - I actually already had -DBROKEN_LOCATIONS as one of the
diffs, in the libavcodec Makefile. This was to apply it to the whole
build and see if it helped - it didn't :/

I applied all the patches that were in the ports directory that were
sane and still valid as far as I could tell from the new code and the
cvs log of the patch - most weren't necessary any more, but I guess
the FreeBSD specific bug fix ones hadn't been merged upstream.

Can you tell me what revision you are currently running? I'll try that
revision, see if it works and bisect the breaking change. svnversion
in the checkout, or I think it is printed each time you run mplayer.

Cheers
