It seems that this patch broke compilation on armel, see this buildlog:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=libav&arch=armel&ver=4%3A0.8~beta2-2&stamp=1326762191

Interestingly, it still works on armhf.

Fabian, do you think you can fix this somehow soon. Alternatively, we
can also revert that commit and re-introduce it later. What would you
prefer?

Cheers,
Reinhard
