Strange - now I wanted to test the installation of libxine1-x on the machine where I tested yesterday and I found that it is installed. But still occure crashes - see my yesterday's observations.
Note: I have libxine from deb-multimedia.

I tested in Ubuntu Quantal:
- Built against libxine1
- installed libxine1 including libxine1-x
- everything works fine
- Built against libxine2
- installed libxine2 including libxine2-x
- everything works fine
It is possible that the problems on my Wheezy are caused by something else - on the same machine is also KDE4 and Kaffeine from KDE4 crashes as well as Kaffeine from Trinity. It was a previous working machine of my colleague, so it can be wrong. I have to prepare a new (clean) test machine...
So, the key question is - to build against libxine1 or libxine2?

Deb-multimedia has a history of conflict with official Debian packages. Stuff gets pulled in which breaks official packages, notable vlc. You should at least never dist-upgrade with that repo enabled. We all use it sometimes though, just watch out.
I don't know much about libxine2* but did notice that xine-ui (maybe also other xine-orientated packages) depends on it. Seems it can coexist for now but maybe libxine1* will disappear from sid sooner than later. If kaffeine can be built against libxine2* that might avoid problems later.
