I wrote a patch that does just that (see bug #337867). However, I
never really tested it and I think there were some other problems...
Is there anything that Helix Player can play that mplayer cannot? I
thought not, which is why I didn't follow this anymore...
By the way, the correct way to fix this would be to rip out all of the
architecture-specific cruft in atomicbase.h and use gcc atomic
builtins, which are present from 4.1 on.
