Hi,

Under Debian, gst-ffmpeg fails to build under powerpc because of an altivec
include being sourced without the altivec CFLAGS:
http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=gst-ffmpeg&ver=0.8.7-1&arch=powerpc&stamp=1130408567&file=log&as=raw

This is with toolchain package versions: libc6-dev_2.3.5-7
linux-kernel-headers_2.6.13+0rc3-2 gcc-4.0_4.0.2-3 g++-4.0_4.0.2-3
binutils_2.16.1cvs20050902-1 libstdc++6-4.0-dev_4.0.2-3 libstdc++6_4.0.2-3

Oddly, gst-ffmpeg 0.8.5 built fine under PPC:
http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=gst-ffmpeg&ver=0.8.5-2&arch=powerpc&stamp=1121427555&file=log&as=raw
with toolchain package versions: libc6-dev_2.3.2.ds1-22
linux-kernel-headers_2.6.12.0-1 gcc-4.0_4.0.1-2 g++-4.0_4.0.1-2
binutils_2.16.1-2 libstdc++6-4.0-dev_4.0.1-2 libstdc++6_4.0.1-2

I don't have access to a Debian/PPC, and I've read that other people have built
gst-ffmpeg 0.8.7 under PPC with altivec turned on just fine.

I suppose one of the toolchain packages cited above is causing this, presumably
GCC given the header reporting the #error.

Cheers,
