Why not? This seems like a perfect situation for a wrapper script.

./menc-wrap.sh < list.txt

menc-wrap.sh:
#!/bin/bash
while read infile outfile ; do
   mencoder $infile -o $outfile <options>
done

list.txt:
infile1.avi outfile1.avi
infile2.avi outfile2.avi
...


If you have some more specific requirements then you'll have to tell us; 
otherwise we'll keep giving you easy ways to do it and saying you should 
have asked on mencoder-users rather than trying to hack mencoder.c. :)
