Comment (by RJVB):

 What OS version are you seeing this on?

 I updated my port:ffmpeg to the current 3.2.2 and audacity immediately saw
 the new ffmpeg libraries. m4a import still works.

 FWIW, I have a personal ffmpeg-2 port that's active. When I open the
 Audacity log (under the Help menu), I see this:
