Just for the record, playing RealMedia files does not fix the problem 
for me.  No matter what (I've tried everything from running as root to 
compiling for a 386), I get the following, as I stated before:

loader_init DONE!
Error no 12
VirtualAlloc(0x0x62800000, 3997696) failed
External func COMCTL32.dll:17
External func COMCTL32.dll:16
Unsupported QuickTime version (0x165b2c30)
InitializeQTML:268498899
ADecoder preinit failed :(
ADecoder init failed :(

Once again, playing RealMedia files does not fix the problem for me.  
BTW, I'm using 2.4.19.
