[MPlayer-users] GCC 4 and above

[Drewe Zanki]

Am running FC4 with most updates. I update regularily.

I will install the compat modules and see what response I get. Failing that,
will go CVS!

I tried to downgrade to GCC3 and it tried to remove half my system - thought
that wasn't a good move!

Thanks
Drewe
