Yes I'm fine with the code. The only thing that makes me think if it's
worth keep compatibility with not-current x264 versions.
It's hard to make a general statement about that. My gut feeling is that
doing like that is fine in branches (e.g. 1.1.x, 1.0.x) not in HEAD.
Anyway, I've no problem with this patch and I will keep that way

So nice to read you again :)

PS: just for curiosity: what do you think about switching to SVN
somewhere into the far future?
I mean, I can live with CVS, but I feel much more comfortable with SVN.
No big things, but a lot of little annoyance fixed.

Bests,
