Comment(by ecronin@…):

 Replying to [comment:7 hans@…]:
 > > Regarding that comment, the "let autodetect do its magic" part means
 that explicit {{{--enable-foo}}} or {{{--enable-foo=/opt/local}}} do not
 do the right thing with (ancient) mplayer's ./configure.  To enable a
 feature you really do need to remove the --disable-foo flag but just let
 ./configure autodetect that foo is present, instead of adding --enable-foo
 like you do in normal autoconf'd programs.  But the removing of --disable-
 foo only happens inside variant blocks where the necessary depends are
 added
