Which is what I tried to say, but without being sure that "coders.conf"
is a configuration file.  If it is 'static' i.e. changes with every new
version of mplayer released and the user is not supposed to touch it,
then it should live in share/mplayer as it did before.  Otherwise it
should go to /etc with INSTALL/DEINSTALL of course
