 I have fixed this in XviD in r82642.

 The failure I now get when cross-compiling ffmpeg for i386 on an x86_64
 machine is the one described in the [http://www.ffmpeg.org/faq.html#SEC11
 ffmpeg FAQ], which the ffmpeg developers say is a bug in gcc which they
 refuse to work around, and the gcc developers say is not a bug and cannot
 be fixed by them. #30602 reports basically the same compilation failure
 with clang, lending weight to the gcc developers' argument that ffmpeg's
 code is the culprit. I have not yet tried the universal variant patch from
 #28935 suggested above.
