 In AvFormatDecoder::SetupAudioStream() codec_ctx could be null by the time
 it reaches line 4010. If it is dereferenced there it will segfault. This
 problem was introduced when ticket #5299 was fixed in svn revision r17268.

 The possibility that this segfault happens is likely very small. But it
 does exist.
