I would prefer something like
#if defined(__GNUC__) && __GNUC__ < 3
#define AV_VAR_ARRAYSZ 0
#else
#define AV_VAR_ARRAYSZ
#endif
in libavutil, then I could get rid of similar mess in MPlayer without
extra work as well :-).
Does this sound like a good idea to you?
A better name would be nice though, preferably one that explains the
trickery to anyone less versed in C...
