Nope, there's nothing wrong with the file according to ogginfo, or any of
the others I've tried.  I'm going to have to do more investigation, because
I'm getting the -3 return on *every* file I process.

But, the strange thing is, I only get it once per file.  It's always at the
*same* place each time I use the same file, but a different place in each
different file.  (Make sense ??).  And it always seems to happen within the
1st 50 calls to ov_read.  Strange, huh.

Cheers,
Eddie
