Sorry -- yes, I could build speexdec, but the resulting executable was
crashing on (what I thought was) a valid input (but see below). I mistakenly
assumed that the build had reported no error but had essentially failed
(since the result was non-functional).

Ahhh.... that's what it is! I see now that the source I checked out was
1.0beta2. My .spx files were indeed encoded with 0.8.0.

I just encoded a new file with my newly built speexenc.exe (1.0beta2) and my
speexdec.exe processed it correctly.

I'm sorry for the confusion. It hadn't occured to me that the 0.8.0 and
1.0beta2 files would be incompatible.

Thanks so much for your prompt reply!
