Description:
The PKGBUILD disables hardware acceleration with a configure option and a comment that says this is because of assembler errors. The problem here actually seems to be an incorrect setup for building a 32 bit binary on a 64 bit system. I maintain the lib32-gnutls28 AUR package and found this can be fixed by setting up the build as described in this stack overflow answer:
http://stackoverflow.com/a/3328054/1270447

Instead of adding "-m32" as part of the CC and CXX commands, put it in the CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS and add the "--build=i686-pc-linux-gnu" argument to configure. See my change to the lib32-gnutls28 package:
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/diff/PKGBUILD?h=lib32-gnutls28&id=f7ade08ecf8888428881c29183f4f8e6c9d6cfa3

Additional info:
* package version(s)
3.0.11-2 to 3.4.10-1

* config and/or log files etc.
export CFLAGS="-m32 ${CFLAGS}"
export CXXFLAGS="-m32 ${CXXFLAGS}"
export LDFLAGS="-m32 ${LDFLAGS}"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/lib32/pkgconfig"
./configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu ...


Steps to reproduce:
1. build package

Looks like the --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu option is the only needed part. I've appended it to our configure line and left the others intact. Please re-open if you experience any problems.
