Hello,
sorry for the delay.

Yes, I would vote for getting these 3 changes into Jessie (if it is up 
to me?).

This 3 changes should only affect the file:
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libavcodec.so.56.1.0

But I think most users today would use this version:
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/i686/cmov/libavcodec.so.56.1.0
(at least the same qemu VM started with '-cpu athlon' took the version 
from i686/cmov)

So for modern cpu users it should make no difference.

Unfortunately I did all testing just in qemu, so some real hardware 
tests would be good.

Kind regards,
Bernhard
