What is this program? It seems to be looking for a function named r00taxx in a library named libr00t.
I don't understand this statement:
LIBS="-lr00t LIBBRAIN="-lhaxxor" $LIBS"
Where does LIBBRAIN come in? Also, I don't see any step where the code is compiled. Any idea what it does exactly?

Was anyone able to get this program to work? Viewing avi files in Linux is still a dream for me.

Ok, downloaded it and had a closer look at the execution. It tries to execute a function called r00taxx() in libr00t, but fails on my system. It writes to the Makefile before it does this step. configure, and configure.in
It does not come up anywhere else, so I don't know why it was put in there. Maybe just to scare you.

it's just a JOKE :).. that's why it fails hehe.. just compile as you normally would and forgive a fellow with bad sense on humor :)

Nah. It's in there to scare the ones who just download, untar, run "./configure && make", and make install... all as root.
The l33t spellings had me confused.
