Sure.  All the patches for libdc from FC5 attached as there's no 
segfault w/ the gtk patch applied.  Note I found that at least the gtk 
patch does not apply cleanly against your CVS source, though the 
important 1st chunk does apply.  I suspect one of the other patches 
(mmx?) causes the segfault  (not referring to the playdv problem here - 
agree thats irrelevant).  FYI, The FC5 entire source package is here, 
among other places:
http://ftp.riken.jp/Linux/fedora/core/5/source/SRPMS/libdv-0.104-2.fc5.src.rpm

rpm -ivh <libdv pkg>;  rpmbuild -bp ../SPECS/libdv.spec  <- will pull 
the tarball and patches into ../SOURCES on an FC / RedHat system.
