[Flac-dev] Need AMD debugging help

[Mike Wren]

I've been running FLAC on both my home desktop and server.  I don't
remember the exact specs, but they're both AMD-based CPU's.  I've been
testing FLAC (trying to break it) for at least 8 months, and have not
experienced any of these issues.  I'm running Win2k on the desktop, and
Advanced Server on the server.  I've been using the pre-complied win32
binaries.

Hope this helps.  I'll try and bang on things tonight for a few hours to
try and reproduce the errors below.
