Well, "./configure --help" says dvbpsi support is enabled by default.  I
just checked configure's output:

  checking for dvbpsi/dr.h... no
  configure: WARNING: cannot find libdvbpsi headers

I can't locate dvbpsi directory nor a dr.h file on the whole computer.
Should they be part of the distribution?  vlc-0.7.2 gives the same warning,
but works pretty good with TS streams.

Anyway, I checked out and installed newest libdvbpsi from svn.  Works now
with vlc-0.8.1.  With svn HEAD, I get a different error:
