Actually there's a good reason to allow mplayer around: mplayer currently 
works on OpenBSD. Xine does not. 

Unless you are volunteering to make a port of xine that would work on
OpenBSD ?  There's at least a bad linker bug that breaks the plugins,
and last time I looked, there was some multi-threading issue to fix
as well... both are tough, since they probably need expertise in 
ld.so/library internals, and gdb won't help with either of these.
