I'm doing getopt now as part of the flac overhaul.  I'd
say that if you do the stopgap aiff write support now it can
go in the next release, where as the audiofile support will
probably take longer.  the former I can merge in relatively
easy but the latter would be better off starting after the
overhaul is done.

CVS will likely be broken for the next couple of days as I
get the new encoder layers in.  I don't like to check in
stuff that doesn't compile but logistically right now it's
much easier for me to do it in pieces.
