Yes! That will be the ideal solution. The patch I provided was more to force it
to work in my setup (Windowmaker, wdm, older hardware [Pentium m]. No Gnome,
KDE, or other desktip environment). It does work very well without passing that
arg to VLC in my environment.

Previously I kept commenting out the whole #ifdefined ...#endif section to make
it work.

Not sure where to look, whether there is a variable that could be interrogated
or a test made in order to determine if VLC accepts the "--no-one-instance"
argument. 

To resume the bug:

1-VLC was built without dubs (delecting the config option "D-Bus IPC systen
support").
2-VLC wihthout dbus aparently does not accept the argument "--no-one-insctance"
 and fails to start.
3-*-phonon?-vlc tries to use the argument without chechking first whether VLC
could accept the argument or not.

Thanks for the good work and have a Happy New Year!
