We unbundle the ffmpeg/mesa and use system mesa/ffmpeg, god knows what versions 
they ship but they are older.
At some point apps will update and won't need this hack, I have no control over 
when.

Anyhow, ffmpeg breaks the ABI(by accident) and it breaks some apps.
Question is, do you care or not?

If yes, this patch (or reverting the cleanup patch that broke ABI) is needed.
I don't want to discuss this matter forever, I just want a decision now.
