I've finally checked this in... sorry for the delay Brady!  I
may be slow but I try not to totally drop the ball.  I have been
going through all the stuff that has piled up, trying to get a
beta out.

one of the last things left is updating the project builder stuff
to work again so I can make an OS X binary release.  I think the
current autotools and libtool make the fink packaging easier also.

having your altivec stuff in is a great help, especially since
it may make FLAC compare more favorably with apple lossless
(apple lossless decoding on macs is very fast because they've
done asm optimizations; it's not as fast on windows).
