[mythtv] myth-gallery fails compile

Isaac,

This problem occurs with all the additional packages that require libmyth
during the compile (mythgallery, mythgame).  Here's what I think is
happening....

I did `strings /etc/ld.so.cache | grep local` to see if ld was actuallty
seeing the library.  I saw the libmyth listed as an entry, so I knew that
ldconfig was picking up the /usr/local/lib directory.

However, I did notice something strange when I `ls /usr/local/lib`.
libmyth-0.7 has a ".so" file, but no ".a" file.  I'm no programmer, so I
don't know if this is relevant or not, but every other library listed in
/usr/local/lib had an accompanying ".a" file for every ".so" file.

I also modified the settings.pro file so that march=pentium.
