[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] remove AltiVec vector declaration syntax macros

The topic braces vs. parentheses in AltiVec vector declaration syntax
came up again recently.  AFAIU the conclusion was that complicating the
code with macros to hide compiler idiosyncracies was no longer worth it.

So here is a patch that simplifies the code and gets rid of those
macros.

The only compiler that is negatively affected is Apple gcc 3.3 (and
possibly earlier versions).  This compiler is used on Mac OS X 10.3,
but gcc 4.0 is available as alternative there.

Luca, OK to commit?
