Maybe this would be better:

// If each libav* DLL is statically linked to the C runtime, FDs can
// not be used across library boundaries. Duplicate these functions in
// each DLL to avoid this problem.

here is the commit introducing the first function using this system.
I belive its commit message is quite good and explains the reasoning.
Beyond that iam the wrong one to discuss this with, iam not a windows
developer and i didnt design this, which is not to say i like or
dislike it. I just added one function IIRC and i wanted to document it
as ubitux seemed to be confused for a moment when seeing it the first
time

libavutil: Make avpriv_open a library-internal function on msvcrt

Add one copy of the function into each of the libraries, similarly
to what we do for log2_tab. When using static libs, only one
copy of the file_open.o object file gets included, while when
using shared libraries, each of them get a copy of its own.

This fixes DLL builds with a statically linked C runtime, where
each DLL effectively has got its own instance of the C runtime,
where file descriptors can't be shared across runtimes.

On systems not using msvcrt, the function is not duplicated.

So why are they not appropriately named in the first place?

> +// the fd numbers are not transportable between libs on windows

AFAIK they are, as long as they're linked to the same stdlib (which
probably is the case for libav*).
