This was due to an error in ffmpeg. This option has been removed from  
the ffmpeg contrib package, so when you recompile your contribs, you  
should not longer run into this issue.

You can remove this three options for more recent compilations (past  
two weeks). They are now set automatically.

This is because libshout is broken. You need to specify --disable- 
shout atm.
Soon we will switch to 10.3 builds only, that should take some of the  
byte out of the continuing issues with our 3rd party libraries we use.
Supporting 10.2 AND 10.3 AND 10.4 is proving to be seriously  
challenging and quite time expensive. From 10.3 and on, the  
buildsystem is more stable and generally more flexible for Makefile  
based compilations.
