I just dug through a bunch of distros and no one ships ffmpeg by default. That includes Fedora 4, SuSE 9.2/9.3, Mandriva 10.1, and Slackware 10.1. It's marked "optional" on Debian sarge. I think I ran into this same issue with xine a while ago. I believe they ship ffmpeg, but can't remember.

GStreamer, xine and mplayer all includes their own copy in their source trees, since the developers of ffmpeg are not committed to a stable api, nor do I think they ever will.
