Here:
http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=blob;f=libavfilter/avfilter.h;h=b88b31a834094f15d3159b017438499f1809b82f;hb=HEAD#l247

Of course experience shows that such warnings do not really work, as
users ignore or fail to notice them. Which is why we have been switching
to an approach that outright removes private information from public
headers, but that first requires to eliminate its use.
