m4a metadata writing is only available when linked with libmp4v2 (either from faad2 or mpeg4ip). Otherwise, m4a tag support is still r/o.
You have to enable using this library explicitly by ./configure --with-mp4v2=yes --with-mp4v2-dir=/foo/bar.
aac metadata is handled by the mp3 id3 code, this is the reason for the difference.
