They weren't before (whichout the update everythong was fine...)
With mpv, I'd recommend using their own build system if you want the
current git version of mpv. It compiles ffmpeg too and uses it
privately, which frees you from the burden of having to emerge
ffmpeg-9999 and break other packages that rely on ffmpeg.
If the mpv ebuild has a "bundled-ffmpeg' USE flag, we would be fine. But
since it doesn't, it's recommended to not use Gentoo's mpv ebuild and
instead build it manually. Fortunately, mpv's build script is easy to
use. You just run it from time to time and it will get you a build from
latest git using latest ffmpeg.
