What I dont understand is that you want mpeglib to release a bugfix and not 
xfree. After all mpeglib behaves correctly, it asks whether the xserver 
supports xvideo and takes it, if available. Unfortunately in you 
configuration the xserver is lying because it doesn't support xv, it only 
claims to do so. So the logical step would be to fix xfree (if they did not 
already fix it in 4.1.0).
