mencoder doesn't compile with xvid under cygwin

I've been following this guide to compile mplayer using
cygwin:
http://64.233.183.104/search?q=cache:JV
uAY5Vm0p8J:www.lyseo.edu.ouka.fi/~pexu/pub/mplayer_windows_h
owto/index.txt+mplayer_windows_howto/index.txt&hl=es&
;ct=clnk&cd=1&client=opera

I compiled xvidcore as it says:
./configure 
make 
make install 
mv /usr/local/lib/xvidcore.a /lib/libxvidcore.a

Now mplayer compiles with xvid support, but mencoder fails
when linking:

asxparser.o codec-cfg.o cpudetect.o edl.o find_sub.o

I tried with xvidcore 1.1.3 and 1.1.0. The same problem with
both.

Is there any way to fix that error?

Well yes.  look at what the 5th elemement on your howto
says.

5. Get Xvidcore (1.1.0) from <http://www.xvi
d.org/downloads.html> and
   install it. At build/generic directory say:


     ./configure && make && make install cp
*mv
/usr/local/lib/xvidcore.a /lib/libxvidcore.a*

after make install you should *not* apply this command.
"mv
/usr/local/lib/xvidcore.a /lib/libxvidcore.a "

Normally I do not do that any more. and BTW, that guide is
quite old. it
first appears on the mailing list more than 2 years now. a
lot has changed
since then.

If I don't rename xvidcore.a to libxvidcore.a then the
mplayer configure 
doesn't find xvid (at least with the --enable-static option,
I haven't tested 
without it). 

(If compiling with mingw instead of cygwin, the configure
does find it, but 
then the binary depends on xvidcore.dll, so I also had to
rename it to avoid 
it).

Anyway I finally fixed the problem by editing
src/plugins/plugin_2pass1.c and 
commenting the line:

DPRINTF(XVID_DEBUG_RC, "Error closing stats file
(%s)", strerror(errno));

I don't know why the other poster thinks that you should not
rename it.
-lxvidcore will match libxvidcore.a, libxvidcore.dll.a,
possibly
xvidcore.dll (but I am not sure where the DLL should be
located in order
to be found in this manner) and possibly other combinations.
There is a
lot of information about this in the MinGW archives.
However, xvidcore.a
will not match, so it has to be renamed.

Gcc prefers shared libraries to static libraries, so if you
have both, you need
to take special measures to link to the static library.
Specifically, put
-static in your LDFLAGS. With MPlayer:
configure --extra-ldflags -static.
Of course, another option would be to not build the DLL in
the first place
(configure --enable-static --disable-shared). I'm speaking
generally:
some packages ignore those arguments, and some do not allow
static
libraries to be built.
