FTR, while the libav source package is in 'main', its 'libavcodec53'
binary package is banned from the live cds. AFAIUI, adding a
build-dependency on libavcodec-dev to alsa-lib is okay, /as long as/
none of the resulting binary packages declares a hard dependency on
libavcodec53.

AFAIUI, such a solution has been discussed earlier in this bug, but it
seems no corresponding patch has been proposed yet.
