Applied, thanks!

For future patches, please set a valid email address for you commits
with "git config user.email 'mvanb1 at gmail.com'" or whatever. Also, the
general convention with commit messages is to start with a one-line
summary, then a double newline, then a more detailed description of
the changes or motivation, all word-wrapped to 72 columns or less. This
works better with established tools which extract the first line for
commit summaries. I've added a newline to your commit message.

I'd like to leave the CVS repository online for another year or two to
give a more gentle transition. I've added
http://flac.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/flac/flac/REPOSITORY_HAS_MOVED
which points to the git repo so anyone still using that code will be
informed of the move.

We should just link to the git repo for normal development, of course.

Xiph doesn't have a decent bug tracker, so we might as well keep using
the sf.net one if people are willing to follow it. Erik, what would you
prefer?
