Well, I did make things harder by forgetting that I could just specify
the help/ directory, but the problem was actually that I had tried to
create two separate independent patches - one for the two MSGTRs and one
for the rest of the changes (since the former is not the same issue as
the latter). As a result of that I had made a separate copy of mplayer.c
in order to be able to make the diff against my modified version of the
file, and when I later said "screw it" I forgot to copy the modified
file back into the source tree.

(Speaking of not using CVS properly, I've just noticed a particular type
of problem for the second time. If I do 'diff -u main/m_config.h
main.working/m_config/.h', it reports a difference; if I do 'cvs diff -u
m_config.h' from either source tree, it reports no differences. The last
time I saw this, in order to get the local copies to sync up I had to
remove the allegedly-changed file and have CVS think it'd gotten lost
entirely. Any idea what might be going on?)

(...and, on a complete tangent, why is help_mp.h in .cvsignore?? I
certainly don't remember adding it to my local copy...)

Attached. I knew I wasn't in there, but I didn't think I'd done enough
to warrant it yet; that is no longer the case, and if you hadn't brought
it up by that point then I'd have most likely included a patch with my
next submission.
