I do not think we ever had, and it would have been a good idea indeed. A
probably valid testing procedure would be to run FATE from a libav tree
compiled as shared library with LD_LIBRARY_PATH loading ffmpeg's library.

But setting up automated tests is only second to making a DECISION about ABI
compatibility.
