No.
Testing with sdl/ffplay is usually not a good idea, 
you find many bugs in sdl;-(
(Or at least memleaks that have nothing to do with 
FFmpeg.)

This is about a global lock that libavcodec needs 
to avoid race conditions, releasing the lock would 
introduce another race condition (only for dynamic 
libraries iirc).

Please do not top-post here, Carl Eugen
