Try building the x264 plugin (have libx264 installed).  There will be a warning
about a value possiblky being used uninitialized.  The root of the problem is
that the pointer "ext" is not initialized before it is used in an if statement
where it is also assigned.  As far as I can see there is no real bug here except
that the warning causes compilation to fail. It can be fixed by initializing the
pointer to NULL at line 344.
