I think this is a legit use case. I think the proper fix is to enable the ffmpeg build system to support the commercially-licensed libx264 version. Question: (how) can you programmatically distinguish between regular and "commercial" libx264 libraries? Something like a macro or something? Otherwise you can specify another case in the configure replacing enable-libx264 with enable-libx264-commercially-licensed not requiring the gpl flag (and possibly upstream the patch, to verify that the use case if effectively recognized lecit by upstream developers).
