Here's a simple fix people have been requesting for a couple of years:

xmms has difficulty streaming flac files, but that's because flac files 
are wrongly sent to the mp3 processor. The fix is simple. Just open up 
mpg123.c, look for the following code and add the two lines below  
containing .flac and  .fla. This will allow flac files to go to a flac 
file processor if it exists.||

              if (!strncasecmp(ext, ".ogg", 4))
                      return FALSE;
              if (!strncasecmp(ext, ".rm", 3) ||
                  !strncasecmp(ext, ".ra", 3)  ||
                  !strncasecmp(ext, ".rpm", 4)  ||
                  *!strncasecmp(ext, ".fla", 4)  ||
                  !strncasecmp(ext, ".flac", 5)  ||*
                  !strncasecmp(ext, ".ram", 4))
                      return FALSE;

Why is it so hard to get simple requests into the official code base?
