mpg123 doesn't use mpglib, it uses its own routines, of which mpglib is 
a very stripped down version. We used mpglib specifically because it was 
LGPL'd and not GPL'd (even if we personally respect the GPL in 
SDL_sound, as an LGPL'd library, we can't enforce it on other applications).

...but now I'm looking at mpg123.org, and it appears they have 
relicensed it under the LGPL, sort of:

http://www.mpg123.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/trunk/COPYING?revision=426&view=markup

We'll have to consider this further.
