Thanks Brendan,

After `wget http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.9.2.tar.gz && tar xzf
curl-7.9.2.tar.gz && cd curl-7.9.2/ && ./configure --enable-ipv6 &&
make && make install && ldconfig` I (re)built all libraries (libao,
libogg, libvorbis) and then built the vorbis-tools. This worked like a
charm.

Seems to me that the configure script for libvorbis should check for
libcurl then, no ? vorbis-tools' configure does check but without
libvorbis that wouldn't build anyway. As far as I can see, libvorbis
didn't build without libcurl, and does with it.

Now playing my Ogg's with RC3 ogg123 and spreading the word ! ;)
