Summary: The xine libraries cannot play old Ogg Vorbis files

Initial Comment:
When attempting to play music with amaroK via the xine
engine (using xine-lib 1.1.1, Gentoo Portage package
1.1.1-r5, the most recent in Portage), it appears that
xine cannot play older Ogg Vorbis files at all.  Any
other amaroK engine, ogg123, XMMS, et al will play the
files properly, but nothing using the xine libraries
(including gxine) will play them.  They all dump the
same message, "libvorbis: this bitstream does not
contain vorbis audio data."

Looking over the bug list, this seems very similar to
Bug #892508.  However, the report for that bug claimed
it was fixed in a later release.  Unfortunately, it
appears the problem's back again.

I have attached a sample problem file (assuming
SourceForge's bug report software allows Oggs as
attachments).  ogginfo claims this was made by
"Xiphophorus libVorbis I 20010225 (1.0 beta 4)" (it
was; I was using that version at the time).  The sound
clip should sound like a series of electronically-made
dings.

I can confirm that it is the same for me. 
 
After "handapplying" the patch provided with the old bug 
the old ogg vorbis files play. 
 
The patch will no longer apply but it is only a one-liner, 
increasing a buffer size.
