1. It *only* works on Solaris x86. It can't work on SPARC systems due to
the use of win32 codecs.
2. To build the package you will need GNU make (gmake, /opt/sfw/gmake),
native Solaris make will not work. You also need the GNU C compiler,
configured to use the GNU Assembler. The mplayer code makes heavy use
of MMX, SSE and 3DNOW! instructions that cannot be compiled using Sun's
assembler /usr/ccs/bin/as.

Use the "--as=/whereever/you/have/installed/gnu-as" option to tell
configure where it can find GNU as on your system.
