This issue deserves more resources. I've added an issue report here: http://tcfoundry.hostme.it/mantis/view.php?id=61 looks like DV fixes (mantis issue #0000051) and this one are the new hotspots and blockers for the new release cycle (1.1.0beta1 and 1.0.6rc2). I'm in doubt for HEAD. HEAD isn't intended for distro's packaging so we can theoricalluy simplify things without worrying; on the other hand, I don't want to mantain yet another different version of configure script, so I'll likely adopt unified changes in order to minimize the maintenance burden. We can just look for ffmpeg headers in new locations and forget the rest since AFAIK debian and ubuntu are stuck on old layout and I don't want to lose compatibility with those.
