Comment(by devans at macports.org):

 Well, faac doesn't work to replace mpeg4ip.  Although both have versions
 of libmp4v2, the separate
 libmp4v2 distribution has additional functions that easytag and others
 need.  But faac can be
 configured with a --without-mp4v2 switch in which case it builds fine
 against libmp4v2 (or mpeg4ip).

 Since libmp4v2 is reputed to be free of mpeg4ip's patent infringement
 issues, I suggest that it
 be used as a replacement for mpeg4ip and then build faac with the
 --without-mp4v2 option to
 avoid a conflict.

 Have created a new port libmp4v2 (committed in r41643) and updated easytag
 (committed in r41643) with good results. If faac and the others can be
 modified to use libmp4v2 (which is what they now
 seem to prefer) then mpeg4ip can be deleted.
