Solved:

I had to fix line 389 of src/read_cache.c.  I changed :
       dprintf("libdvdnav:read_cache:pre_cache DVD read realloc 
happened\n");
		to
       dprintf("libdvdnav:read_cache:pre_cache DVD read realloc 
happened\n",0);

and my troubles went away...

Next problem was with libdvdcss-1.2.1.  There is a bug such that you 
have to manually set
export DVDCSS_METHOD=title  (which is supposed to be the default 
decryption method but isn't)


Anyway, it's a bit choppy (Phantom Menace) but it's playing now.

Thanks, Matt

These are the things I've found so far.  I'll let you know if I find any 
more gotchas, but it still looks good.  Would you consider linking to 
RPM's for different distros?  I would be willing to post the 
(Checkinstalled) RPM's for COL and probably find a home for them if 
you're interested in making this available in the SxS...
