When skype links with libv4l like the rest of the Linux V4L applications 
nowadays, it will work given some minor changes I think.

NOTE: if you try to build KDE4(network) after you installed my libv4l, then 
KDE4 will start using libv4l instead of /dev/video0. It will break a couple of 
times, but should be easy to fix. Mostly I needed to add libv4lxdrivers.so to 
the installed libv4l .pc files.

Thanks for your patch.

I will forward it.
