It's a bit difficult with automake, because $srcdir won't point to the correct 
value afterward... it's silly I know, but that's tricky to cover on all 
cases. And no, I'm not going to change the whole build system just for this.

Right now I solved this by adding a makefile.xine.in in ffmpeg's directory, 
but that means that I cannot just replace the ffmpeg directory to update the 
snapshot, I'd rather do everything on the parent directory.
