Comment:

 Have attached a slightly revised patch for the ffmpeg-devel Portfile that
 I would like you to test before committing.

 This updates svn to the latest versions and re-enables swscale and mmx for
 ffmpeg-devel.  Would like your confirmation
 that this works or if only the mmx part works.

 I have not disabled support for libxvid since, although it is redundant in
 a functional sense, it provides encoding
 support that some users prefer and ffmpeg allows it to be specifically
 selected if desired.  It provides no decoding support.

 In addition, since ffmpeg is a dependency of many other multimedia
 programs this may remove functionality that some other port is depending
 on.  In general, since dependencies can't pass variants in MacPorts, I
 prefer to keep variants to a minimum and use them to remove functionality
 at the users discretion rather than eliminate functionality by default and
 use them to add something.
