XBMC uses
FFmpeg (an free open source code suit of video and audio and video codecs) for all video decoding so we would probably not implement any other third-party video codec directly into XBMC, ...but if you read the FFmpeg development mailing-list you will see that they are already aware that this new open source H.264 decoder has been released and that they are currently discussing if and how to dissect it to scavenge any good parts from it for integration into FFmpeg's own open source H.264 decoder.

There seems however that there also new a open source JPEG decoder in that Fameware (AMD Performance Library) code that might be interesting for XBMC, but just like the above mentioned H.264 decoder I am not so sure if that should really be implemented into XBMC directly, because you see, just like how XBMC uses FFmpeg for video decoding we are using
libjpeg to display JPG images. So it might be better to ask the libjpeg developer to do what the FFmpeg developers are doing right now, that is; dissect that code to scavenge any good parts for integration into libjpeg's own open source JPEG decoder.
Maybe a developer from Team-XBMC could comment on this?
