-There is currently a regression in AviSynth+'s @code{capi.h} header as of

+In 2016, AviSynth+ added support for building with GCC. However, due to
+the eccentricities of Windows' calling conventions, 32-bit GCC builds
+of AviSynth+ are not compatible with typical 32-bit builds of FFmpeg.
+
+By default, FFmpeg assumes compatibility with 32-bit MSVC builds of
+AviSynth+ since that is the most widely-used and entrenched build
+configuration.  Users can override this and enable support for 32-bit
+GCC builds of AviSynth+ by passing @code{-DAVSC_WIN32_GCC32} to
+@code{--extra-cflags} when configuring FFmpeg.
+
+64-bit builds of FFmpeg are not affected, and can use either MSVC or
+GCC builds of AviSynth+ without any special flags.
