 Tried anyway :) too many programs depend on argv[0] tricks.

 Same thing with empty .vlc (except a bit longer "startup" time).
 
 .local/share/vlc/ml.xsp gets created, .vlc does not get re-created.
 
 Does not make things better (I ran multimedia/vlc before more or less
 fine). What should happen? Should I attach gdb to it? ktrace?
 
 I can do some more sophisticated debugging but I have no clue about the
 new vlc architecture. Looks like there are plugins and modules everywhere.
 
 In the /usr/local/lib/vlc/gui I have:
 /usr/local/lib/vlc/gui/libncurses_plugin.la
 /usr/local/lib/vlc/gui/libncurses_plugin.so
 /usr/local/lib/vlc/gui/libqt4_plugin.la
 /usr/local/lib/vlc/gui/libqt4_plugin.so
 
 vlc --intf ncurses (or anything, including vlc --intf blabla) - same effect.
