Oops. That's the trouble of being late to the list. :-)

Think of altivec as mmx or sse* or 3dnow or other vectorial instructions
available in the ia32/x86_64 world.

If you read the archives, you might find some posts of mine (waaaaay
back) when I was first trying to get xine playing a DVD on my iBook G3
600MHz and not being happy with the interlacing effects that were shown
(I implemented the linearblend deinterlacer in C in xinelib, while ia32
had already a linearblend deinterlacer in mmx, I think).
