[FFmpeg-user] Segfault for 2 pass x264 encoding

Update:

When I use,

http://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-1.0.1.tar.bz2

, ffmpeg doesn't crash anymore. The same x264 is used as when building from
git/master.

This means we can't blame x264 for causing this.

It seems that something needs to be fixed here....
