FYI, the much awaited vorbis-tools 1.2.0 is out[1][2].

I invite the users to update as soon as possible, as many problems
have been corrected.

>From the changelog:
 * FLAC support now relies on libFLAC
 * Support for large files
 * Fixed acinclude.m4 to properly support --no switches

 * ogg123: fixed a bug in esd when pressing CTRL + C
 * ogg123: fixed a type mismatch in option parsing for 64 bit systems
 * ogg123: configuration no longer hardcoded to /etc
 * oggdec: limited support for chained Ogg bitstreams
 * ogg123: compiles with older versions of libcurl
 * oggdec: support decoding of multiple files into a single one
 * oggenc: -k, switch for Skeleton bitstream encoding
 * oggenc: fixed issues with Skeleton on big endian systems
 * oggenc: proper 5.1 channel mapping support
 * oggenc: FLAC module does not confuse every Ogg file as its own
 * oggenc: compiles with older versions of libvorbis
 * ogginfo: recognizes Skeleton, Dirac, FLAC and Kate bitstreams
 * vcut: solved issues described in ticket #1313
 * vorbiscomment: support for creation of long comments

This release would not have been possible without the help of quite a
few people who provided patches for several issues.  Thank you very
much for your help.
