How does ekiga check at build time if the h263 encoder is enabled at
run-time? AFAIUI it cannot, and ekiga built against the stripped
packages should magically be able to use the h263 encoder from the
unstripped package as soon as it is installed.

If that is not the case, I'm doing something really insane and definitly
want to know about it.

I guess I need to have a closer look at ekiga then...

How does the configure script implement that check? Does it really
compile a testprogramm calling av_register_codec(CODEC_H363_ENCODER) or
something and checks the result of the compiled testprogram?

If yes, then that check is utterly broken and really should be
fixed. But that is really a totally seperate bug.
