If you are running Ubuntu (or debian), try first running:

sudo aptitude build-dep mplayer

This will install the dependencies for mplayer without installing mplayer
itself.
Of course mplayer has to be listed in the repository (that's by default
usually).

Than run as usual: ./configure, make, sudo make install

That worked for me on Ubuntu Lucid
