Wait, libdvdnav doesn't use pkg-config.
I also had that problem once, but I solved it with a cheap hack. It 
seems dvdnav-config is missing --minilibs and is unable to process the 
parameters passed by the mplayer configure. Here's the hack I used. 
Apply it to dvdnav-config.

-OR-

Edit the mplayer configure, change the dvdnav-config --minilibs 
statement to --libs instead, so configure passes the correct parameter.

Hope it helps.
