Yes, but if that constraint is not documented then any crash should be
considered a bug in FFmpeg, not a violation by the application. Thus, I
stand by it, it is an API change.

This was about get_buffer(), an advanced API for high efficiency.

Also, all this was already rehashed three months ago. Let us not start
again.
