Recent change in SDL_mixer's MikMod decoder

I noticed that SDL_mixer recently changed its MikMod decoder to "stop 
implicit looping, fade out and other flags". Is this something we should 
apply to SDL_sound as well? On one hand it could be argued that if 
whoever created the song says it should loop, then it should. On the 
other hand this would not play well with Sound_DecodeAll().

Comments? For whatever it's worth, the XMMS MikMod plugin seems to do 
something similar.
