I added it within the last week. I added a version check for
CODEC_ID_VP6A based on the version installed on my machine, which
obviously has it. So it seems you have the same or a later version of
ffmpeg which nevertheless doesn't have VP6A support.

In any case, the codec doesn't work with flash and it was a stop-gap
measure to prevent a segfault whenever Gnash encountered a codec it
couldn't handle. The fix involved (a) using the seemingly correct codec
for VP6A when it exists and (b) adding an assertion that fails when no
codec is found (before, Gnash tried to decode using CODEC_ID_UNKNOWN,
which is bad). So Gnash will still abort if any unsupported codec is
encountered. It needs more work.
