Correction to the title of this bug report: while the test output makes it appear that the failing test is the last one (NEON), attempts to work around this build failure by temporarily disabling NEON support in the build revealed that it wasn't this test failing at all, but the test of the SIMPLE-ARM implementation.

This is the implementation that Andreas pointed to in his comment, so it appears debugging this is on the right track, but since I was confused for a bit I thought I should set the record straight.

Also, since the SIMPLE-ARM implementation will never be used on any Ubuntu architecture (it's superseded by either the NEON or the ARMV6 implementation on all armhf systems, which are by definition ARMv7 or later), I have uploaded ffmpeg to simply disable the test of this dead codepath at build time.
