Aaron,
I just checked both the bzr branch linked above and the debdiff and can't reproduce any problems with either the Debian build system or a manual "./configure && make distcheck".
apt-get source libvdpau && patch -p0 < libvdpau_0.4.1-3ubuntu2.debdiff and bzr branch lp:~sometimesfood/ubuntu/precise/libvdpau/libvdpau.fix-967091
both work fine for me on a pristine Precise machine.
