A patch was submitted, but apparently not merged. That was also my experience trying to submit a patch for https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/8738 . Somebody on the bug tracker took note, but was apparently unable to effect a merge in the intervening years.

Maybe now that ffmpeg is using Forgejo, the ball won't be dropped like this as often. Or there'll just be a five-digit number of open pull requests instead.
