Might also be worth looking at the upstream changes here:

http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc/vlc-1.1.git;a=shortlog

The videolan team maintaines -bugfix branches for a limited period of
time, where they backport important fixes like security and other
important changes, but don't allow any new features. I think we do want
to follow this branches, even after release, similar like we do for
mozilla.
