libquicktime... again

Thank you for your reply, Loic!

Yes, I am sorry. I believed that those issues were already fixed in the
new upstream version. I took this at face value (maybe because Daniel
has removed *all* of the patches for his 0.9.10 release, but I do not
want to lay the blame on him).

I had no problems compiling this plugin, so this issue did not catch my
eye. Then I realized I am compiling on a i386 and not on a 64-bit
system... :/

This should not be the worst problem. ;) I already checked this patch
back in into the current branch.

Yes, this is right. There is still (at least) one issue left concerning
the inclusion of deprecated header files: lqt/lqt_codecapi.h still
includes two header files from <quicktime/*>. 
Strangely it includes <quicktime/qtprivate.h>, which will not be
installed by default. Consequentely compilation will fail if you include
<lqt/lqt_codecapi.h> anyway.

Again, sorry for the inconvenience! :/

Cheers,
Fabian
