My nightly build agent for my app is a hackintosh running 10.8, but I do
not believe it has the hardware or driver to support vda or videotoolbox to
test this on that machine. When I use ffmpeg -hwaccel with vda or
videotoolbox, it fails to initialize. I can, however, successfully use a
build made on it on another, real mac running a very recent OS X - probably
not what you are interested in. I wanted to fix the compile error instead
of disabling videotoolbox altogether in the build script.
