I have updated my mythtv-fixes port to include cpu detection/tuning. On my test 
machine the resultant binary used ~12% CPU instead of ~30% to play a recorded
DVB-T mpeg stream from a remote backend.

Under linux this cpu detection uses /proc/cpuinfo, while my patch will use
/compat/linux/proc/cpuinfo if available, the results are dependant on
cpinfo providing a model name.(It doesn't allways do this)

If you don't have linprocfs mounted it will fall back on /var/run/dmesg.boot.
(This probably works better ATM, but may cause trouble later depending on
what new linux-centric logic is atted to configure upstream)

If you have linprocfs mounted do "make configure" check the results, if a
 specific CPU wasn't detected, unmount linprocfs and "make configure" again.
(You can then remount)

untar in /usr/ports/multimedia

I have also included the svn updates to the fixes branch since the previous 
port went out.

Seems to fix the first issue in #3099, I'm unable to replicate the second, so
it is possibly fixed also.
