OK, I tried to explain it in the .txt file, but now I also uploaded a png 
screenshot with the area marked in green coulour - it shows frame no. 239, 
the highlighted area gets back to a smooth state (blink!) at frame no. 250, 
which is a keyframe. With the DivX 5.0.5 decoder, the area is smooth, no such 
artifact.

Strangely enough, I couldn't compile the CVS snapshot yesterday, but today 
(2003-10-14) I can. But no difference, the artifact is still there.

Anyway, my system:

Gentoo Linux 1.4
kernel 2.4.20-fnk
libc-2.3.2
gcc 3.2.3
GNU ld version 2.14.90.0.2
GNU assembler 2.14.90.0.2
Intel Celeron 1.2 GHz
NVIDIA GeForce 2MX
I also uploaded a log file.
