MPlayer crash using external libass

[djqfrey@…]

Compiled the SVN copy against the git copy of libass (there's some patches in the external that fix improper fonts being used.)

When MPlayer goes to display the first subtitle, it crashes.

Distribution: Gentoo.

Confirmed bug is in libass, documented here:
​https://code.google.com/p/libass/source/detail?r=0b709a5df697b36a24e4456b24585ec8f0c54b63

Upgrading to libass-0.10.0 resolves the issue.
