I was bored at the airport on Saturday and merged all but one of the
patches upstream now plus two additional ones. Take a look at the
upstream bug report for details.

This now works with 2.8 and ffmpeg git master just fine without
possibly breaking with either version. Let me know if you still see
anything problematic.

Well, at that point it would be easier to fix than building all of
ffmpeg myself, right? :)
