I have created a project related to using CoreAVC in linux which should 
make it easier for me to update the code, add more documentation, and 
help people with issues than trying to deal with issues via the dev list 
and a ticket which no developers have any interest in.
The project is here:
http://code.google.com/p/coreavc-for-linux/

And contains instructions on installation for MythTV.  Both ia32 and 
x86_64 distros can be used with CoreAVC now too.
