yeah, withd some dedicated persons... or may be by that time some coding AI
will dobthis conversion!

Anyway, in absence of such AI i pushed few more fixes, so now it should
build on x86_64 out of the box with

./configure --no-mmx

note, you might need glib1-dev installed, it installed on Slackware-15 live
dvd, not sure about other distros.

Before x11 capture you might want to create your capture file at 0 size by
saying 'touch myfile' and let broadcast2000 overwrite it (for some reason
automatic capture file creation does not work / broken?)
