It _should_ refuse to open it (if you're using vorbisfile. If you're at the
lower-level libvorbis interface, you'd expect it to reject one or both of
headers 1 and 3, if you want a more specific answer). There's no reason to
suspect this doesn't work as intended, but I doubt it's been explicitly
tested for every case possible.
