Yes, or at least it has always been this way.

At the start of configure it is reported that --with-live555-tree is an 
unrecognized option.
Changing line 381 of the patched Makefile for vlc to:

CPPFLAGS+=-I${LOCALBASE}/live/liveMedia/include

and removing the backslash from the line before of course, looks like a good 
solution to me.
