Excellent, thank you. I had to remove realpath as it was missing fchdir.
I was able to build the 3ivx 5.03 sources (encoder/decoder) with this
library. I will have to do some testing on it to see how it goes
(fingers crossed).
Are you willing to give permission to distribute this library with the
3ivx BeOS release?
I think I would also need Jerome and Axels permission as well.
Understand that 3ivx is not OpenSource.
