[Xnap-devel] [ xnap-Bugs-580412 ] Uploaded mp3s are corrupted

[<lo...@fu...>]

I thought I'd move this over to this list, so that more eyes
might get a look at this problem.  Please check
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=580412&group_id=9285&atid=109285
 for the description.  I will start here in response to the
lastest comment :

I have only ext2 filesystems.
Every file?  Well, yes for every test that I have run.  As I
said, I became aware of this problem when someone who uploaded
from me pointed this out.  After that, I asked others to check
the files that they'd just upload and all who I asked replied
that their files were bad.  Since then, I have tested by passing
files between my laptop and my home lan's gateway.  This is how I
discovered the 0x3f issue.  

I've tried Sun 1.3 and 1.4.  Wondering if it was a 16 bit char to
byte use, I've tried various settings of $LANG before launching
xnap, but no change.

I can't think of anything "special" about my config that might
have any effect.  I'm just hoping that anybody has even the
smallest theory that woul help me get on a debugging path.
