The latest Slackware ships with a reasonably recent svn release now that is completely unpatched and offers a choice with the installation script to build either with or without lame mp3, faac, AMR and dvdcss libraries. It is a nice compromise I think, although I build the latest svn myself :). For those who are interested: http://slackware.osuosl.org/slackware-current/source/xap/MPlayer/MPlayer.SlackBuild I am sure it would not be difficult for other distros to cobble something like this together.....
