I'm sorry for that, I should've checked that this string would match on
earlier versions of ffmpeg. Looking back, replacing the 'die' clause
would make more sense. However, since changing it now would trigger
many rebuilds, I'll send a patch which changes the match only for the
broken earlier versions.

Thanks for reporting and feel free to CC me if/when you see that a patch
of mine has been incomplete or otherwise has caused issues.
