[vorbis] Ov_open crash in windows

[programmer_ted]

Well, I was having problems with ov_open when I was getting started with 
Vorbis and ended up recompiling the libraries.  I had to change the STIN 
macro to static because Borland C++ doesn't seem to like static inlines, 
but aside from that I didn't change anything (that I recall).  I think 
Borland C++ is just more compatible with its own libraries :D

Plus I didn't have to worry about any underscore issues after that (BC++ 
adding underscores to function names).

I think Shaun's problem was to do with using the singlethreaded runtime, 
though (at least, he's using the multithreaded one successfully now).  The 
libogg, libvorbis, and libvorbisfile libraries SHOULD work out of the box 
with MSVC++, but it appears us Borland users are stuck with recompiling the 
libraries to make it work.  Also, I think the Borland C++ Builder 4 
libraries don't work with Borland C++ Builder 3 (and since my BCB3 
libraries worked with BC++ 5.5, the BCB4 libraries probably don't work with 
BC++ 5.5 either).  So in conclusion, if they were to provide the Borland 
libraries, they'd need to provide a few different versions.
