I use Gentoo, and Gentoo compiles the binary for me. Looking at the 
gentooe ebuild, it does the following:

it runs ./configure with the --with-gtk2 option
runs make and make install

it looks like that's all it does. Requirements are just 
>=ffmpeg-0.4.9_pre1, libpng, jpeg, zlib, and x11

Oh, I just noticed there is a patch that is applied by gentoo as well. 
The patch comes from here:

Did you have any errors spewed out at the command line?
