Yes, I think the file
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0c/Experience_ubuntu.ogg

is like that (0 based keyframes).

I am seeing other oddities in the file (I think) maybe somebody can confirm
or deny this:

there is a granulepos 68516 in the file, which is (1070,1106) zero based. If
I begin decoding from that page, I get (2 pages) [68516, 68518] 1107 (?), (2
pages) [68518, 70976] 1108 (?)  (keyframe) (2 pages) 1109 (?).

However, the keyframe should be 1109 (zero based) according to later gpos.

I think what is messing me up is that there are 2 granulepos in a row with
the same value. If I start from the second page with gpos of x, then I miss
a page (because I should be starting on the first occurance of x).

Surely the second page should have granulepos of -1 ? Is this another known
issue ?

Is this something that ogg_page_packetsout() could solve ?
