Hi,

I tested my own Win32 compile of pre1 and pre2 one or two weeks ago (flac.exe
through foobar2000 for transcoding), and the results were as expected: no errors,
roughly same speed on my Intel Core i...something mobile, very slightly improved
compression performance in comparison with 1.3.1). I didn't test all -1..-8 modes,
but I diffed the source code of libFLAC between 1.3.1 and 1.3.2, and it seems there
were no relevant changes to the internal compression routine aside from the LPC
calculation, so I don't think this was/is necessary. Other than that:

In libFLAC/src/stream_encoder.c, the following C++ style comment was added recently:

//	FLAC__ASSERT(samples <= blocksize);

Since all other comments in this file (and, possibly, the entire lib) are C-style /* */,
I suggest to remove this line again.

Best,

Chris

Really need someone to test the Windows binaries because I don't have
Windows.
