I honestly don't think it's worth spending time on this until Aout3 is out. 
With Aout3 we'll have to rewrite it again anyway (but it should be much 
simpler).

There is still one thing Stephan can try however. The SDL plugin is included 
in the vlc-win32-20020730.zip snapshot, so you could try to run "vlc 
--aout=sdl".
