squeeze VLC amd64 MP4 playback still broke

[allcoms]

Hi!

I'm running testing on AMD64 and I've just apt-get dist-upgraded this
morning. I was happy to see vlc getting updated but MP4 playback is
broken for me and has been for the last month or two. When I
originally installed squeeze a few months ago, vlc MP4 playback was
working fine but then an update from a while ago caused the playback
of MP4 files to be rotated 90 degrees to the left and squashed up into
about one third of the horizontal window space available. Note that I
can still play MP4s fine under (s)mplayer and that I'm using the FOSS
radeon (not radeonhd) xorg driver.

Thanks!

Dan
