It would help if it were fixed quickly enough, before it makes it into too many
distros. We don't have to address the problem unless it becomes widespread. Of
course once the current version will have been around for a while it will be
too late.

Oh well, I guess libmpg123 will have to join the (sadly) long list of broken
Linux libraries that need special hacks and workarounds. It's not the end of
the world, it's just disappointing because we had discussed this before, and
you seemed truly interested in fixing this properly, so I had hoped we would be
able to get it right.
