This is a known issue with gcc. Cut&paste the last compiler invocation that 
gave you that error and remove -g from that command line. Run it 
in ./libavcodec. That way you will compile h264.c without debugging 
information, which you probably don't need anyway, unless you plan on 
debugging h264.c :)
After that, type make from the root of the source tree again and all should 
be fine.
