XBMC for MK802 and Mini X

Now that XBMC has been released for Android, we have made a build from the git repository that works on the MK802 and the Mini X. We will be building new versions of XBMC every now and then, so keep an eye on this thread for updates.

Note that these versions are pre-release. Expect issues with the build.
