[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] allow feeds to be a stream source

Currently ffserver allows an FFM to be read while it's not already open. 
ffmpeg always opens an FFM stream to fetch its header just before writing to 
it (does a GET first and then a POST). This simple patch allows the FFM to be 
opened and read as long as the new request is not a POST, so that the FFM can 
be served to other clients while it is being received.

This makes things simpler for setups where one ffserver is relaying a live 
stream to another ffserver.
