-Subject: [PATCH] vtdec: Use kVTVideoDecoderReferenceMissingErr only when
- defined
-
-The enum value is declared present since macOS 10.8+[1]. Howerver,
-the compilation now fails with the 10.15 SDK:
-```
-../sys/applemedia/vtdec.c:1219:12: error: use of undeclared identifier 'kVTVideoDecoderReferenceMissingErr'; did you mean 'kVTVideoDecoderMalfunctionErr'?
-      case kVTVideoDecoderReferenceMissingErr:
-           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-           kVTVideoDecoderMalfunctionErr
-/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.15.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/VideoToolbox.framework/Headers/VTErrors.h:40:2: note: 'kVTVideoDecoderMalfunctionErr' declared here
-        kVTVideoDecoderMalfunctionErr                   = -12911, // c.f. -8960
-        ^
-1 error generated.
-```
-
-Put the enum usage under #ifdef. When missing, the behavior will be
-the same as before commit a5c437c6430cdce603e46e09400beb4c5b9f5374.
