Yes, just after I sent this message, I thought about it and reached the
same conclusion.  I was probably jumbling up pre-"x11" option build
issues I had with what 'make show-options' displayed.

Could it be arranged that disabling x11 ("-x11") would prevent the
addition of "vaapi", "vdpau" to the PKG_SUGGESTED_OPTIONS?  Might
save on future confusion over what 'make show-options' reports versus
what will actually happen.  Or does option processing happen too late
for that?

Thanks.
