Well, this patch smells good.
The good news is that I tested it on amd64 and several x86 and got the
same md5 as you.
Now the bad news is that I tested it on ppc and it gives totally
different results :

Indeed, with your patch, the regression tests seems much more useful ;-)
It really produces playable files, and results are consistents.
So I think it should be applied.
And then someone will have to dig into the ppc problem (which is maybe
an endianness issue somewhere).
