Carl kindly pointed me to the sample, and I can confirm my patch does
affect how the video looks: without my patch the sample is shown at a 16:9
AR (which I assume was the original fix), with my patch the sample uses an
AR of 1:1 and it is therefore square. However I tried with a recent
Quicktime, and it displays the sample using the square aspect ratio.

What is the preferred course of action? I see three options
 - leave the code as is, no action
 - apply my patch, fixing 7277, but breaking 1539, assuming QT is doing the
right thing
 - add a demuxer option that optionally disables pasp parsing (is it even
worth it?)

Let me know your thoughts
