faad2 is actually in main, it's faac that's in multiverse.

libmp4v2 is part of the mpeg4ip source package, which has two multiverse
build-dependencies: libmp3lame-dev (from lame) and libxvidcore4 (from xvidcore).

If x264 was moved to universe, I see no evident reason for these two to remain
in multiverse just because of patent issues, but IANAL.

I have another doubt against a gtkpod-aac transitional package: it would be a
divergence from Debian that we would have to carry until it can be dropped (in
karmic+1? What's the policy on transitional packages?), since Debian has no
reason to add it.
