Bugfix-versions is the key here. An mplayer VCS checkout is NOT a bugfix
release, it would contain an enormous amount of completely unrelated new
code. This is not going to be fixed in Feisty unless somebody can
isolate the patch that fixes it. Upgrading to a new upstream checkout
has enormous potential for regressions, which we can't effectively test for.
