I can reproduce it here:

- libogg, libvorbis, vorbis-tools from CVS 20001220
- Red Hat Linux 7/IA32 (heavily updated)
- glibc-2.2
- kernel 2.4.0-test12 (if that matters, it shouldn't)

It runs fine until 98.3% where it hangs -- apparently in an endless loop
because I can't strace any system calls being executed. The resulting ogg
file has some really nasty artifacts...
