Applied the original patch (with my own "evident" necessary tweaks)
to current svn.
I might have been wrong (?) at that step, but anyway:

the results:

gcc 3.2.2 and 3.3 produce a twice as fast working encoder but
a broken decoder (hangs with a green screen)

gcc 3.4.1 does not like static constants in
i386/fdct_mmx.c and
i386/dsp_mmx.c
then if I comment out "static" it compiles but the encoder
produces a stream showing wrong-colored squares (with about twice too high
bitrate), though you can guess the picture, and the decoder is broken as above.

Would somebody confirm or tell me that it's just my own fault?
