theres still the issue of some functions in internal.h using internal
tables of libavutil like ff_inverse
this creates dependancies between any part of ffmpeg and libavutils internal
stuff
Of course this issue is not new and as you say some of it is only used
outside lavu but its still an issue.
I mean that someone who wants to change the sqrt algorithm sees the code
is in internal.h and has a ff_ prefix also meaning internal and so goes
ahead and changes it while beliving there wont be an ABI/API issue
month later some distro maintainer tries to hire a hitman to take us out
for the resulting mess ...
