I think they are, though I might have confused them.

It means someone needs to look at it with a debugger I'd guess.
In principle there is avs support on Linux as well, which might make it easier to test, but it's still a bit of a pain to debug for someone not using the feature.
Also, possibly avs support through ffmpeg works or can be made to work, but I've never tried.
No idea if maybe someone else on the list knows anything about this?

I'd hoping that MPlayer could be coaxed into supporting AviSynth scripts again since the combination is a worthy tool for media work.  Unfortunately, r31878 is rather ancient.  Was support for this intentionally dropped for some reason in 2010?  I'll provide whatever info is needed if I'm able.  Thanks.
