Please confirm that you tried "make distclean && ./configure --enable-gpl --enable-libx264 && make" and that it failed with above error. Then please run "make V=1" and post the complete, uncut output of "make V=1" (please do not post the output of the earlier run).

Either your x264 include file does not match your library version or you have two different x264 versions installed. Try to uninstall the developer package(s) of libx264.

I don't think there is anything about this ticket that can be fixed in FFmpeg.

I had the same issue, running rm /usr/local/lib/libx264.so* fixed it :)
