I seem to need lua5.1 and lua5.1-native in DEPENDS for this vlc as opposed to just lua.
ie. DEPENDS += "libdvdcss libdvdread lua5.1 lua5.1-native"

I doubt this has anything to do with it, but I am using DISTRO="angstrom-2010.x"
and setting
ANGSTROM_LIBTOOL_VERSION = "2.2.6b"
LIBTOOL_HAS_SYSROOT = "no"
only because apache2 does not configure with the newer libtool
