Bug 3535

Building Buildroot 2011.02 with Crosstool-NG 1.10.0, using gcc 4.5.2 and uClibc 0.9.31, I get this error:

AS arm/simple_idct_neon.o
arm/mpegvideo_arm.c:33:1: error: size of array 'x_H263_AIC' is negative
make[3]: *** [arm/mpegvideo_arm.o] Error 1

Doing some googling it appears that there is a problem with a defined value:

Chromium has patches that might apply and appear to be generic (not ARM specific):

I have not tried these because it turns out I don't need mplayer after all since this patch only makes mplayer use NEON with the processor but does not utilize the DSP on the BeagleBoard.  So I just disabled mplayer from the build.
