One thing that might be happening is that you might have multiple 
versions of xine installed at the same time.
This causes all sorts of strange problems in versions 0.9.13 and below.
To help fix this, look in /usr/local/lib for "ls *xine*"
Then in the xine source directory, do "make uninstall" on xine-lib and 
xine-ui.
Then check again in /usr/local/lib to see if anything is left over.
If there is anything left, delete or rename it.
Then do "make install" again on both xine-lib and xine-ui.

This might help.
