There is a hitch with it - it libvisual-plugins package does not compile
with gcc4.

So it would need to be patched to do so, I assume that packages should
compile with the default compiler, and the fact that it doesn't means
there is probably a problem with the code.

That being said, when compiled with gcc32 they do work beautifully with
the gstreamer libvisual plugin compiled against the libvisual package in
rawhide (tested with totem).

If I can get them to compile with gcc4 I will submit a package for
review. It might be as simple as disabling one of the plugins until
upstream fixes it (haven't looked at where it failed).
