It works well here.
Since I'm using mplayer SVN version, I changed something by my self.
It seems like that _ld_extra is not used anymore. We may add extra
libs with --extra-libs. I added these libs by hacking Makefile.
The changes to v4l and v4l2 input modules are the same.
I just configure mplayer with  --enable-tv-v4l1 --enable-tv-v4l2
--enable-vdpau --disable-v4l2.

The old problem still remains: it seems like that my webcam supports
160x120, however if I use this size, pwcview shows a green screen and
stalls, and mplayer just stalls. After killing them, I must restart
webcamd to be able to use pwcview or mplayer again with webcam.
However, 640x480 and 1280x1024 works well.
