This is why --disable-mmx is used until it is fixed.
do you use -fomit-frame-pointer? you should if its not already used and if it doesnt fix it, why dont you disable just the problematic part instead of disabling everything? it might also be interresting to see where compilation fails (and the gcc version would be interresting too) if all else fails, IMHO there should be some warning about this so a user is aware that he could get a much faster ffmpeg by recompiling with pic disabled [...] -- Michael "nothing is evil in the beginning.
