[FFmpeg-devel] Is commit 6119b23a part of 0.7 on purpose?

[Reimar Döffinger]

Hello,
It seems some programs (e.g. XBMC) do not build against FFmpeg 0.7
(fixed by now, but still).
The reason is the given commit that is an API and ABI change in
libavfilter.
Is it in 0.7 on purpose? It seems it was made in June, what makes
me suspicious is that their condition in the "fixed" code is
#if   (   LIBAVFILTER_VERSION_INT >= AV_VERSION_INT(1,79,0) \ 
	       && LIBAVFILTER_VERSION_INT < AV_VERSION_INT(2,0,0) ) \ 
	    ||(   LIBAVFILTER_VERSION_INT >= AV_VERSION_INT(2,16,0)) 

which makes me think we may have messed up beyond the "lavfi is not
stable".
