[vorbis] ogg123 streaming bug

[Richard Smith]

ogg123 seems to have a issue when streaming for long peroids of time. 
If I have ogg123 up connected to a streaming server for more than 3.5 
hours it begins to stutter or add blocks of static.  I've verifed this 
with 2 different soundcards in both alsa oss emulation and regular oss. 
  It's 100% repeatable for me.

It does not happen with xmms using libvorbis as the output plugin so it 
seems to be specific to ogg123.

I verified it still exists with CVS as of a week ago.

I tried to run under valgrind but valgrind's thread support lacks 
something ogg123 needs (according to valgrind)  I tried anyway and the 
buffers go to 100% the sound totally munged.

I'm guessing the 3.5 hours is specific to my test machine so it may run 
longer on a machine with more RAM or perhaps a different CPU.

My test machine is a Intel P4 Celeron with 128Mib of RAM.
