  "Build Failure With VA-API 0.34.0"

Iiuc, the problem's not libavcodec API version, but that of vaapi.

on my system,

	pkg-config --modversion libva
	  0.34.0

The bug's ~ 4 months old.  Is use of libva v0.34.0 in a VLC-master build
still a no-go?  Or is there a fix/workaround in a branch/fork somewhere?
