Generally yes, but what is the point of stupidly copying a non-public
API header from FFmpeg instead of just using it directly?
The only arguments I can see so far is:
1) you can just rm -rf libav* (IMO a stupid idea, but not sure what will
be the best solution)
2) we do not have to immediately keep up with FFmpeg changes to these
files.

Though I consider 2) a disadvantage.
