Unfortunately XBMC is using these semi-private fields, so it gets broken by this 
change. Therefore I think it would be better to postpone this until after a 
SOVERSION bump.

Looking a bit closer at the source [1], it seems XBMC uses this only to provide 
a ff_read_frame_flush equivalent called xbmc_read_frame_flush.

To avoid having to do that in XBMC I suggest to rename ff_read_frame_flush back 
to av_read_frame_flush and add it to the public API. Thoughts?

Best regards,
Andreas
