You'll need the following patch to avoid build failure with recent xine-lib 1.1.x, patched for vdr-xine.
Details: XINE_PLUGINDIR now references libdir (that's the build failure: recursive reference), and using xineplug_LTLIBRARIES removes any need to override libdir.
This patch will break builds with xine-lib < 1.1.5.
