  I fetched the current source and ran autogen.sh: that created a configure that looked for ffmpeg's version in version.h as well as avcodec.h

Looking at ffmpeg.m4, it does check both header files, but I've found many more API changes with ffmpeg git, which makes this a less than simple change. For you, did just changing the header file work ? Can you please try the debugging trick documented on this page: http://wiki.gnashdev.org/Debugging_Autotools_issues to see what exactly is happening ?

  I'm usually game to offer patches, but I've never patched a
  configure file and it looks complicated.

We should be looking in both avcodec.h and version.h, to support all versions. A patch is welcome.

configure looks for the ffmpeg version in avcodec.h; it's in version.h now.  I changed configure to look there, which worked.
