attached are a set of patches for audiofile, esound (in PPC DR1.0),

running kernel 2.2.9 on a pbG3 300.  If you try to play mp3s and only
get static, these should fix that.  they can be added into the .spec
file to build an RPM no problem.  If anyone hasn't had this problem, i
don't know why mine it acting odd.

Some of the patches are brute force, so there are better solutions out
there.  Mostly quick late nite fixes so i can play mp3s.  But they
work for me, so enjoy.  Any feedback would be cool.
The audiofile in GNOME CVS is supposed to have a lot of endianness fixes
already - you may want to try it. (Not sure how binary compatible it is
with 0.1.6 though).

Anyways, my main point is that you really need to get these patches to the
original authors of the respective packages so that they can be
integrated. The audiofile author is michael@68k.org. The esound author is
ericmit@ix.netcom.com (that e-mail address reportedly no longer works
though - perhaps try getting things through raster@redhat.com instead).
