I will be working on this next.  Basically, I need to move to querying 
pkg-config to find out what libraries are required for FFMPEG_LIBS since 
its unpredictable what features the user will have linked into ffmpeg.

I haven't compiled on OS X yet... do you have pkg-config available on 
that platform?

Also, slightly related was a bug tracker just submitted.  Linking in the 
static version of ffmpeg has issues.  There is duplication between its 
GSM symbols and libsox's GSM symbols.  Not sure how I'll detect and fix 
that off hand.
