Maybe, if one of them turns out to be better than xine-lib. libvlc is simply not as resilient/stable as xine-lib when it comes to a dirty signal which is almost guaranteed on DVB-T. I have a libvlc branch ready to go [0] if it can be proven that it meets the same standard set by xine-lib, you should try it some time and let me know what you think. libvlc works 95% of the time, I haven't had a fault with xine-lib in the stable version for 2 months, it's rock-solid. GStreamer is very unreliable.
Which do you prefer?
Now that totem-xine is no longer available in karmic, I use VLC as a player. My wife will get confused if she has to use 2 players, one for DVDs and a different one for regular files so it's easier just to use VLC which can do both.

You shouldn't run `./configure` or `make` as 'root'. But that's not your issue.
How did you get your branch? There's a FAQ on this, I'll link it.
Michael Lamothe suggests this article as an answer to your question:

xine-engine is better than vlc-engine
