I caught Monty on #vorbis, and he provided a quick answer -- ogg_packets
refer to their corresponding vorbis_blocks.  Hence, those have to be
queued up as well so that they're not overwritten with the next call to
vorbis_analysis_blockout().  A quick sanity check with code confirms that
queueing up vorbis_blocks with their corresponding ogg_packets does the
trick.  Good to know.

Just following up here so that it gets into the web archives...

Bummer for distributed encoding, though -- one more data structure to have
to send between machines.  Hmmm....
