I have fixed that right now. Thanks.

Really that was not fixed, I just have disabled the MMX support
by default. There is no way to synchronize with XMMS when using
MMX registers, i.e. lock them or avoid context switch.
The only way will be to run the library on a different process, 
this way the O.S. will save registers on context switch. However,
for this to work, XMMS must launch the plugin on a different 
process, I cannot do that within Infinity.

Take this into account if you are planing to use MMX extensions
on Libvisual.
