Hmm, it took me a while, but now I understand what you and Arto mean.
This might work, but as mpg123 currently handles mp3 files directly,
I'd have to rewrite much of the mp3-input code. Frame boundaries would
have to be dealt with among other things...

It will mess up mp3 position info, but otherwise it's up to mpg123 to
handle them correcly.
