Where did you get it? Please post the URL, and I'll have a look.
I've had so much trouble getting stuff to compile recently that I've
now got quite a few tricks up my sleave that can make the buggers
work.
Also could you mention in your post which distro you're using and
what the name of the file that you download is.

I d/l'd it and found that I'd had a go at the same a few weeks
ago, I managed to get different error messages.
I've got an mpeg1 encoder, the instructions are complicated for
using it (or look to be at first). If you want the binary let
me know, but I've given up on the mpeg2 package.

I assume that you're talking about mpeg2encode that is contained in
mpeg2v12.zip.
I have downloaded this package and it was quite easy to compile.
I can -- currently -- not say that it works, but under linux the
compilation was as easy as invoking "make" in the main directory.
After compilation I've found "mpeg2encode" and "mpeg2decode" in
the respective directories. Under Sun Solaris I have modified the
Makefile to include the correct xlib directory. I worked flawlessly.
I'm using SuSE Linux 5.? with gcc 2.7.2.1 and Sun Solaris 2.6 with
gcc 2.95.2.
I will try to generate an mpeg2 file later. If it doesn't work, I will
post it here.

I don't recall where I heard it but I do recall hearing that other people
have had no sucess what so ever getting decent animations made with that
MPEG2 source code. The output was unusable if I recall correctly.

I don't know what you call a "decent animation", but I have successfully
converted 1000 images with 640x480 pixels to an animation. I was able
to view it with Sun's ViewMeTV without any warnings or so.
The quality of the generated is definitely better than the quality of the
mpeg1 file that I have created with the Berkeley mpeg_encode. However,
the created files seems to be larger.

Well that is good news. Now if you can port it to a few different platforms
I am sure the POV-Ray community would be forever in your debt :)

At least for Linux no porting is necessary. The creation was as easy as
mkdir mpeg2
cd mpeg2
unzip ../mpeg2v12.zip
make
After that I modified the file "PAL.par" to suit my need, i.e. I have
changed name, format and size of input images and the display size.
With "mpeg2encode myPAL.par test.m2p" I have generated my film.
That's all.
