quicktime4linux-1.5.5-r1

Hi all,
I had to install this q4l, about which I could not care less, but it's needed both for gnome and especially xine, which I would like to use for my dvd's. It simply keeps crashing during compile.

**What happens: the last lines of compile before crash are as follows:
(continues below)
**********************************************
gcc -c `cat i686/c_flags` libdv/transpose_x86.S -o i686/libdv/transpose_x86.o

!!! (no error message)
**************************************************

I searched the net and found the homepage of a 17yo guy from kansas that seemed to have identified the problem and published an alternative quicktime_makefile.patch. I tried, but got another error, that this time looked like:

***************************************************
gcc -c `cat i686/c_flags` libdv/YUY2.c -o i686/libdv/YUY2.o
In file included from libdv/YUY2.c:37:

!!! ERROR: media-libs/quicktime4linux-1.5.5-r1 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 28, Exitcode 2
!!! (no error message)
***************************************************

This happened a few lines before the previous.
My USE flags are untouched from the Gentoo default, except the addition of "dvd" in /etc/make.conf.

Please, is there any solution, workaround, hack, spell or kick that may help me? How do normal people get to install xine in gentoo, is it painless? Am I in deep Scheiße?

Bye!
-Federico

PS-Please do give a foolproof explanation. I (have been) installed(/ing) Gentoo (since) last friday and I am relatively new.

...for the information of the readers: problem was solved by re-commenting the CFLAG -march=pentium3 in /etc/make.conf .

Now I'm still suffering with xine install, but that's another story...

I had the same problem and commented out my CFLAG="-march=athlon" and the CXXFLAGS. quicktime4linux compiled just fine after that.
