See, this is why gentoo is good. Sure, you have to compile everything, but that's work for your CPU, not you. When your other distribution inevitably does something you don't like, you also have to compile everything, but it's a huge pain because they don't want you to do it.
This would be, at most, a two line configuration change with gentoo. One to enable non-free licenses, which you'd typically do at install time, and then another to enable the option on VLC.
