You need to make sure this check goes after:
.include <bsd.port.pre.mk>

Yeah, but by doing this, you will never be able to build a package of
Lumiere. I recommend adding mplayer as a RUN_DEPENDS, and users can
then decide to build mplayer later with more options. There are
examples of this throughout the ports collection (gstreamer-plugins
being a nice GNOME example).
