Everyone forks it, the forks are not orphaned. Merges between them will
be very hard ...

Just try
diff -u  libmpeg2/idct_mmx.c libavcodec/i386/idct_mmx.c
in mplayer and be surprised by how many cosmetics and few functional

any functional changes, its kinda hard to notice in >800 lines of
changes. :)
