Had the same problem on 10.04 LTS (lucid) and didn't want to compile the
package myself. So i fixed the binary. On x86-Systems with ffmpeg
4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.3 installed, just change the following 8 bytes of
/usr/bin/ffserver starting from offset 0x3473 in any hexeditor:

c7 44 24 08 00 00 00 00     movl %0x0,0x8(%esp)

-->     c6 46 00 02                 movb $0x2,0x0(%esi)
          89 44 24 08                 mov %eax,0x8(%esp)

The first opcode implements the fix cited by Reinhard Tartler above. The
second one does the job of the original one (there is a xor %eax,%eax
right before that position).

I know this might be inappropriate. But it worked for me. So why not
share it...
