[XviD-devel] Any bug left for 1.0.0 ? Then report.

Hi,

Yes. ARCH_IS_PPC_ALTIVEC does no more exists. The koncept is:
if the compiler supports c-altivec extension then the altivec is 
compiled in.
in xvid_gbl_init the library checks at runtime if altivec is available 
and
enables, disables the code.

The Assembler aren't compatible between Mac OS X and Linux,
the Altivec files are a 'plain' altivec c. And it is quite faster to 
write
altivec c code than assembler.
