Good:
16:55 toots at leonard ~/sources/svn/savonet/trunk/website% ldd /usr/lib/vlc/access/libv4l2_plugin.so
        linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007ffff5dff000)
        libv4l2.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libv4l2.so.0 (0x00007f29ed899000)

        libdbus-1.so.3 => /usr/lib/libdbus-1.so.3 (0x00007f29ec045000)
        /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f29edcd2000)

I guess this issue should be fixed then. Did the original reporter try with this version of VLC ?
