Regarding FS##8806, I've used both the codec and plugin versions of the patch
for about a year on various targets. Both versions of the patch
perform very well on
all targets I've used them on, and play everything I could throw at them.

If anything, give both versions a final test and sync them against the
latest SVN, and
if everything looks good, commit! I personally would like to see the
codec version of the
patch accepted, but I have no qualms about the plugin version, either.

Just my $0.02.
