Just thought i'd chime in and say that this fight has already been
lost once (maybe more times) before. No point in rehashing it. 

It's not any major burdon to just add a wrapper header for ffmpeg
headers for use in C++. It's normally just a few lines of code. Also i
don't know why somebody says xbmc would fail to compile due to it.
We have the wrappers in place + normally use internal ffmpeg.

You must be using external ffmpeg then and be loosing out on all our nice
hacks/patches that have been deemed ffmpeg.org unworthy :).
