thanks

Upon further inspection, this issue is fixed upstream (0.8.6f).
Apparently, when .diffs were made for #478140, the following commit
was missed:

http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/changeset/49a6a08ce9a7518ff1753ba1c68846401e7e74b0

and modules/demux/mp4/libmp4.c was left with an undefined FREENULL. At
runtime, this results in printouts like the following (with vlc -vvv):

[00000001] main private warning: cannot load module
`/usr/lib/vlc/demux/libmp4_plugin.so'
(/usr/lib/vlc/demux/libmp4_plugin.so: undefined symbol: FREENULL)

I attach an updated 404-CVE-2008-1768.diff (for debian/patches) that
seems to fix the problem.

Best regards,
Pier Luigi Pau
