Looks like I'm the only one actually running this code ;-)

patching file drivers/media/video/bt8xx/bttv-driver.c
patching file drivers/media/video/videobuf-core.c
Hunk #1 succeeded at 335 (offset 4 lines).
Hunk #2 succeeded at 1093 (offset -36 lines).
patching file include/media/videobuf-core.h
Hunk #1 succeeded at 227 (offset -10 lines).
Deadlock is gone, only mplayer fails to unmute the audio. Again the
Xvideo player works okay (with audio).
Hmm, using v4l2 (mplayer .. -tv noaudio:driver=v4l2:devic..) works
with audio now (used to be the other way around). I can live with
that.
Thanks for your help,
Koos
