dsp.idct_permutation_type describes dsp.idct*, not dsp.h264_idct*
It happens to work because the default mmx idct is permuted and your 
patch ignores the fact that the permutation isn't FF_TRANSPOSE_IDCT_PERM.
But your patch will break if the user requests an idct that isn't 
permuted. Now, one can say that it's natural for h264 to break if you 
request a nonstandard idct (even if it previously ignored such a request), 
but FF_IDCT_H264 is one of the settings that breaks.
