Not your fault, I understand.

That did it, now vlc accepts "--no-one-instance", and phonon-vlc works
without patch.
According to "vlc -H", "--no-one-instance" is the default behavior, do
you want me to submit a patch for the phonon-vlc port to not add this
argument at all in the WITHOUT_DBUS case ?

Much thanks to both of you for your work on KDE and FreeBSD.
