I don't have developer tools installed. Is there a compiled rc2 for
Tiger somewhere that I've missed? I tried the latest SVN and it didn't
even load, most likely because it has not been built for Tiger?

What's the minum requirement for building mplayer on Tiger? Any
suggestions? Even better if someone could supply a Tiger binary or a
ready setup buildfile directory with all necessary libs for Tiger.

Those are startup arguments? I'll try those when I have a tiger version
of rc2 up and running.
