Dynamic linking is exactly the same as "including". You cannot fulfil the 
requirements of the GPL for Fraunhofer AAC FDK, so it is not legal to 
distribute FFmpeg binaries with Fraunhofer AAC FDK library enabled if GPL was 
enabled for FFmpeg.
Please close this bug, there is nothing that can be done about it.

The native AAC encoder is of course not as good as the Fraunhofer AAC
encoder. Patches exist to improve our encoder, the quality will be
improved after the Google Summer of Code.
