I discovered that ffserver streaming was broken (it seems like it has been since 20th November) and I opened a ticket for this (https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/5250 <https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/5250>).
I spent yesterday learning git bisect (with the kind help of cehoyos) to painstakingly track down the cause. This was made more difficult due to the presence of a segfault in ffserver during the period where the bug was introduced so I first had to identify when and how that was fixed and then retrospectively apply that fix again for each step of the second git bisect to find the actual bug.
Anyway, the fruits of my labour are the innocent looking patch below to correct a couple of typos and define a valid range for two variables.

It is used to store the difference between pointers, so ptrdiff_t is the
correct type.
This prevents potential overflows.

This fixes segmentation faults caused by passing a packet_ptr of NULL to
memcpy.

A negative codec_id cannot be handled by the found_decoder API of
AVStream->info: if the codec_id is not recognized, found_decoder is set
to -codec_id, which has to be '<0' according to the API documentation.
This can cause NULL pointer dereferencing in try_decode_frame.
Also make sure the codec_type matches the expected one for codec_id.

If size is zero, avio_get_str fails, leaving the buffer uninitialized.
This causes invalid reads in av_set_options_string.

Otherwise the ffm demuxer can return the same packets endlessly, if
there is no server attached.

If resyncing leads to the same position as previously, it will again
lead to a resync attempt, resulting in an infinite loop.
Thus don't seek back beyond the last syncpoint.

This is a generic solution that will not reqiore modifications when new options are added.
This also fixes problem with current implementation when qmin or qmax=-1.
Only 8 bits was sent and read back as 255.

It has not been properly maintained for years and there is little hope
of that changing in the future.
It appears simpler to write a new replacement from scratch than
unbreaking it.
Currently FFM files generated with one versions of ffmpeg generally
cannot be read by another.
By spliting data into chunks, more fields can saftely be appended to
chunks as well as new chunks added.

This way avserver only depends on the data structures of the ffm
demuxer, which it already does, and not also on private functions
being exported by the library.

The existing functions defined in intfloat_readwrite.[ch] are
both slow and incorrect (infinities are not handled).
This introduces a new header with fast, inline conversion
functions using direct union punning assuming an IEEE-754
system, an assumption already made throughout the code.
The one use of Intel/Motorola extended 80-bit format is
replaced by simpler code sufficient under the present
constraints (positive normal values).
The old functions are marked deprecated and retained for
compatibility.
