[vlc] A version problem.

[Felix Paul Kühne]

There is no need to freak out. Just have a look at our download for  
Mac OS X website, which you can find at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ 
download-macosx.php

At the end of the page, you'll see an entry for VLC 0.8.6c, which  
does fully support 10.3.9 in combination with a recent QuickTime  
version.

Kind regards,
Felix Kühne
