New description:

 VLC was updated to version 1.0.0 in #20272. As you say there, VLC requires
 Mac OS X 10.5 now. VLC also now depends on llvm-gcc42, which doesn't
 currently build on Mac OS X 10.4; see #19262. So I believe the VLC port
 should have a pre-fetch block preventing installation on Mac OS X 10.4 and
 earlier. We may even want to copy the 0.9.9a version of the VLC port to a
 new port VLC09 for those using Mac OS X 10.4.
