The docs seem to be wrong, then. Check below. Correction is on the way.

Hmm... check configure --help next time. ;)

$ cat version.h
#define VERSION "dev-CVS-040217-21:42-3.2.2"
$ ./configure --help | grep xvid
  --disable-xvid         disable XviD codec [autodetect]
  --enable-tdfxvid       build with tdfx vid support [disable]
  --with-xvidlibdir=DIR    libxvidcore (XviD) in DIR 
  --with-xvidincdir=DIR    XviD header in DIR
$ ./configure --with-xvidlibdir=/usr/local/lib --with-xvidincdir=/usr/local/linclude

Checking for XviD ... yes

Works for me.
