In the build log, the result of the check is already (faulty) positive

	checking for avcodec.h in legacy ffmpeg directory... yes

*before* the code is actually compiled. The error message

	ffmpeg_avcodec.c:3:28: error: ffmpeg/avcodec.h: No such file or directory

is printed *after* the line, that reports the result of the check to 
be positive.

I think my patch does fix this check. Now it checks for the actual 
compilation result and not for a spurious "$?" return code of any 
other command that may have been finished successfully before the code 
to be checked has actually been compiled.
