It seems when using the latest ffmpeg from master git, there's an incompatible change in the last few weeks that prevents libxcb-shape from being detected properly in ffmpeg so it wouldn't compile properly. I have written a patch to fix the detection to make ffmpeg compile properly.

Example if if failing to compile.

INSTALL doc/libavcodec.3
INSTALL doc/libavformat.3
INSTALL doc/libavdevice.3
INSTALL doc/libavfilter.3
LD      ffmpeg_g
libavdevice/libavdevice.a(xcbgrab.o): In function `xcbgrab_read_header':
xcbgrab.c:(.text.unlikely+0x52c): undefined reference to `xcb_shape_rectangles'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:122: recipe for target 'ffmpeg_g' failed
make: *** [ffmpeg_g] Error 1
