This bug was fixed in the package xvidcore - 2:1.2.2+debian-0ubuntu2

---------------
xvidcore (2:1.2.2+debian-0ubuntu2) lucid; urgency=low

  * Non-exec patches got broken upstream by invoking yasm -f elf64/elf32,
    so the __OUTPUT_FORMAT__==elf test no longer works. Instead, trigger
    the section in the global include file, thanks to Russell Coker
    (LP: #530876).
