Oops. I sent this off then forgot about this problem. OK, now I've done
some more searching, it's definately hanging ALL of xmms, and it isn't
getting to the ov_time_seek() call at all -
vorbis_ip.output->flush(timeoffset) does NOT return. This looks like an
xmms issue - but it would be nice to get a workaround in place, even though
it's extremely hard to trigger.

Didn't try this, since it doesn't appear to be vorbisfile at fault.
