the failure message was as I posted above, and seemed to be a known 
ffmpeg /compiler problem.

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13850

can't find a register in class `GENERAL_REGS' while reloading `asm'

I was originally set up with gcc-4.1 (GCC) 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) 
(Debian 4.1.1-20), and was trying to compile it on my backend which is a 
DURON1600 (athlonXP). The bug report seemed to suggest that it was 
non-determenistic which seems bizarre.

I was just about to see if I could reuse your skiploopfilter patch from 
a few months back, but was allready at the "too difficult" stage. Any 
chance that you could get that into any commit. Always good to be able 
to ease of the cpu if possible.

Thanks for all your efforts, much appreciated.
