Win32 cross compilation is broken with libvdpau but without libx11

vlc aliases           : cvlc rvlc qvlc svlc

To build vlc and its plugins, type `make', or `./compile' if you like nice colors.

IMHO x11/VDPAU shouldn't be checked to begin with when compiling for win32/win64

Why does PKG_CHECK_MODULES([VDPAU], [vdpau >= 0.6] matches for you then, if you are crosscompiling?

VDPAU without X11 makes no sense. Failing is very much intended here.

If your setup picks native packages for cross-compilation, don't blame it on VDPAU.
