They are, but this union is where the default value is stored when you 
define an AVOption. At some point it seems it was decided that rational 
(and video_rate) type AVOptions should set dbl instead of q, which is 
then av_q2d()'d into an AVRational.

I'd still not remove it, as Paul said. It's harmless being there and in 
the future it could be used.
