In order to build vlc, I had to do this:

     p_vcd->num_tracks = ioctl_GetTracksMap( VLC_OBJECT(p_input),
                                             vcdinfo_get_cd_image(p_vcd->vcd),

Should I commit it? I'd say yes, since it doesn't build without it, but I always
fear to break something for someone else.

Later I have this in modules/gui/wxwindows:
g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../../..   -I/usr/pkg/include -DGLX_GLXEXT_LEGACY
-I/usr/include -I/usr/pkg/include/freetype2 -DSYS_NETBSDELF -I../../../include
`top_builddir="../../.." ../../../vlc-config --cxxflags plugin wxwindows`

-c -o libwxwindows_plugin_a-wizard.o `test -f 'wizard.cpp' || echo

g++: unrecognized option `-pthread'
/usr/pkgsrc/multimedia/vlc/work/.buildlink/include/wx/generic/panelg.h:97:
`const struct wxEventTable wxPanel::sm_eventTable' is protected
wizard.cpp:344: within this context

That one is probably too much for me. I removed the gui module from the Makefile
to finish the build. I wasn't planning ot use the GUI on that machine. That's
still quite frustrating. :o/

Later:
src/misc/threads.c: In function `__vlc_thread_create':
src/misc/threads.c:570: storage size of `param' isn't known
src/misc/threads.c:572: sizeof applied to an incomplete type
src/misc/threads.c:577: `SCHED_OTHER' undeclared (first use in this function)
src/misc/threads.c:577: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
src/misc/threads.c:577: for each function it appears in.)
src/misc/threads.c:582: `SCHED_RR' undeclared (first use in this function)

Defining PTH_INIT_IN_PTH_H in config.h fixes the problem. It would be enabled by
configure --enable-pth, but that woulnd't play nicely with native threads. What
should be done?
