mplayer binary seems broken on macbook 5,1 running Sierra

[fieldlab]

Installed Sierra on an older Macbook 5,1 unibody, uninstalled all ports and reinstalled macports and all ports per macports instructions. Never saw so many fast binary installs, and most worked but mplayer had to be compiled from source and seems to be fine. Here is the error returned by the binary-

# mplayer ~/Movies/2016\ Wake/Wake.mp4

MPlayer interrupted by signal 4 in module: demux_open
- MPlayer crashed by an 'Illegal Instruction'.
  It usually happens when you run it on a CPU different than the one it was
  compiled/optimized for.
  Verify this!
- MPlayer crashed by bad usage of CPU/FPU/RAM.
  Recompile MPlayer with --enable-debug and make a 'gdb' backtrace and
  disassembly. Details in DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_crash.
- MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen.
  It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your
  gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read
  DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and
  won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug.

In the future, please fill in the Port field and Cc the port maintainers (port info --maintainers MPlayer), if any.
