Well, therein lies the problem.  I think once various bits of libvorbis 
code are identified that can be pulled out to generalise (for reuse 
throughout the program) and optimise, simply write a simple C version that 
can be used as a reference and let whomever figure how they want to 
implement the CPU specific optimisations.  I think it'd be foolhardy to set 
in stone what sort of optimisation to use (ie must conform to a piece of C 
code that is say, unrolled and forces register usage that may not be nice 
to all CPUs).
