 If a developer exclusively working for a project that has done everything
 to destroy FFmpeg (although maybe using FFmpeg exclusively?) is opening
 tickets on our bugtracker under an alias personality, I think "trolling"
 is not exactly a wrong description.

 A patch was posted on the development mailing list, please comment there.
 It makes no sense to discuss patches here on track.
