We can start asking Mike to get this fixed in FC's xorg packages.

You'd want to pull in libXvMCW.so, not libXvMCW.so.1, and
unfortunately it is always coded with absolute filename, which of
course ahd to change from FC4 to FC5. Add to it that x86_64 (and ia64,
but who run myth on ia64...) mangles the 64 bit names, so
non-automatic dependencies on so.x are broken. :(
