Yep, well the old limiter was just buggy - the odd sound that you and I
noticed when it was driven was eveidence of the bug, it was riding the
gain down when it didnt need to. the new one isn't perfect (I dont think
thats possible without burning all the CPU), but it sounds OK to me and
it more-or-less behaves itsself. Overshoots are in the 0.01dB area.

The order seems wrong to me too, but in practice it will give you more
headroom (= volume later) than the other way round.
