Hm … do we have somebody still alive being able to give us an overview
over that or do we need to dig into the (doubtlessly abundantly clear
and well-documented;-) code ourselves to find out? Such usage of a
decoder would of course justify containing perhaps some special frame
parser code in addition to the use of libmpg123 for decoding and ID3
parsing (for keeping the metadata).

I'd still like to avoid linking in libsndfile which in turn uses
libmp3lame in future, because of unclear build order of the two.


Alrighty then,
