Hi Martin,
thanks a lot for the reply.

Thanks for the tip. It works to the extent that it prevents those
messages from appearing and make completes successfully. But almost
all (4724) fate tests are failing, haven't tried to trace it down.

I commented there, it seems there are many PRs pending and from the
changelog, it seems there's little progress at all (mostly cosmetic
changes).
This led me to a reference indicating that YASM already does it right.
I tried to build with YASM instead. After disabling HEVC and VVC decoders
it ran almost to the end, but then it failed on tx_float:
Warning: libavcodec/x86/vp9lpf.o
skipping strip -x
Warning: libavcodec/x86/vp9lpf.o
libavutil/x86/tx_float.asm:1936: error:
Warning: (PFA_15_FN:21) expression syntax
Warning: error
libavutil/x86/tx_float.asm:1937: error: (PFA_15_FN:21)
Warning: expression syntax error
make: *** [libavutil/x86/tx_float.o] Error
I don't know whether it can be disabled in some way as it appears to be
a prerequisite for many codecs and filters?
Besides that, I suppose that YASM isn't a good idea at all, right?`

The available runners are macos 13, 14 and 15 - all x86, there's no
arm yet.
And would it be better to use Clang like in case of your FATE machines?
Thanks
