Ack, hadn't thought about that. Ideally, I think maybe I'd like to see an 
alternate nVidia XvMC build and an alternate Unichrome XvMC build, and leave 
the no-XvMC build as the default one (so people must jump through extra hoops 
to get one of the other ones).

Or is there a way to include XvMC support, but have it default to being off?
