 2015-03-04, but that could be wrong. I remember it "always working", but I
 wasn't checking every month and I apparently don't have older logs from
 Portage.

 libs/mediastreamer-2.9.0-r1.

 Versions of mediastreamer before 2.11.0 are buggy and pass a uninitialized
 AVFrame into avcodec_decode_video2(), thats not correct for both FFmpeg
 and libav and both can crash as a result.
 If one doesnt crash thats just luck that the uninitialized values happen
 not to cause a crash

 So i suspect this bug is just that your mediastreamer is too old, iam
 closing it thus, but in case updating mediastreamer doesnt resolve it then
 please dont hesitate to reopen.
