I disagree here.  Our demuxers are unlikely to ever get removed, since
they are a useful alternative to libavformat.  Plus, the PMP demuxer is
much more likely to get ported from libmpdemux to libavformat than from
some obscure MPlayer fork.

So if somebody cleans up the PMP demuxer for inclusion, I'd say we
should commit it.
