----------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 atomic support has been added in libavformat/fifo.c since 4.4 but GCC
 doesn't support atomic builtin for all architecture and fallback to link
 with libatomic.
 The problem is that ffmpeg assume that all architectures are using GCC
 builtins and the build fail with 'undefined reference to' errors.

 The solution is to link libavformat with libatomic.

 Here is the GCC documentation about atomic
 https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Atomic

 Under Debian unstable I see two architectures who uses libatomic armel and
 powerpc. Here is the output for the powerpc build.
