I did not file a bug report. 
I can try to recreate that environment, but it's not going to be easy.

My question is about the current state, though, of 0.10 -- Which AAC codec people use? The libfaac or the "experimental" libavcodec.

AFAIK, AAC is the current "mainstream" acodec on the internet, and I would like to understand what the recommended coded is. 
If I did not have to add "-strict -experimental" I would pick the ffmpeg implementation, and this is the reason I'm asking.
