No, it's just that newer features are introduced.  You can use CVS, or
you can wait until the next release, but you'll have to confront the
changes sooner or later.

I don't see the problem.  So -vo vesa changed between pre6 and pre7, and
you needed to install an external library.  That's not a problem with
CVS, but with CHANGES to MPlayer in general.  If you had waited until
the next released, you would have run into the same problem, just later.
