[vorbis-dev] Vorbis for Macintosh

Hi.  For anyone who doesn't know me, I'm a Macintosh developer. 
Right now, I'm at the MacHack conference (which runs from Wednesday 
to Sunday).

Before I left, I grabbed the Vorbis sources out of CVS.  Yesterday I 
got the library and a couple of examples building in CodeWarrior and 
verified that they worked.  I'm going to try to get a QuickTime CODEC 
built, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to get that done this weekend.

Unfortunately, CVS isn't working for me from the conference, so I 
can't keep my source tree completely up to date and send patches back 
immediately.  But I can tell y'all that it was pretty easy.  I only 
had to do my own implementation of strdup(), fill in my own 
<sys/types.h> with a couple of types that are normally defined by the 
configure scripts (int64_t and the like), and put a bunch of type 
casts before calls to alloca().  (I think now that I have everything 
else working that I'll be able to include <alloca.h> to my 
<sys/types.h> and strip out the type casts.)

Sometime next week, I plan to submit not only my patches but also 
some CodeWarrior project files (all XML, of course, so they can 
easily be put in CVS) which can be used to build a Mac shared library 
version of libVorbis as well as a couple of the examples.
