For what it's worth, DebConf10 videoteam is using the experimental
ffmpeg packages backported to a squeeze snapshot. dvswitch and
ffmpeg2theora both use ffmpeg libraries. Everything is working well. So,
it might be feasible to provide backports more broadly.

Far from ideal, but, at least it's an option.
