Huh, curious, gcc 8 (mingw-w64) compiled this just fine without the
semicolon.
I'm attached a fixed version anyway.

Oh my. ;-)

"Just fine" means it didn't give you a warning. It produced unintended
code though - unless it additionally optimizes the av_freep() call
away, as libAVPin_Free() is supposed to return void anyway. Obviously
since av_freep() itself produces a void return value, gcc assumes this
is okay. Otherwise, you would have gotten:
warning: ‘return’ with a value, in function returning void

I don't know how to tell gcc to warn about it - except for the funky
new "misleading indentation" warnings.

Sorry for OT...
