I have no further plans for vcut. It's been removed from the
vorbis-tools build (though the source remains, if anyone wants to use
it as a reference. As you note, it's probably not much good for that,
either. I should probably just remove it entirely - people could
always resurrect it from svn if they want).
If I ever need a tool like vcut again, I'd write it from scratch.
