I just wanted to let you guys know that I was able to build this port
with no problem on 9.0 RC2 AMD64, after I either changed the download
location and some of the names (tar.gz, to tar.bz2 in some cases), or
fetched the source files manually.

After building, I even used a script I created for the prior version to
batch convert about 100 avi to a format usable on stand alone DVD
players with no issues.
