I've seen the vote and as far as I know this only concerns w32threads.

Windows XP is hereby not a supported build target anymore. It was
decided in a project vote that this is OK. (Technically, it could still
be built for Windows XP using an external pthread lib as of this
commit.)
I've just released another WinXP compatible FFmpeg build using pthreads. I haven't extensively tested it myself, but so far it's working just fine.
