Hello all,

I'm going to go ahead and repackage lame again to include the
portableio replacement code I submitted. I've attached the files in
this email, in case any of you have problems viewing the patch at the
sourceforge link I provided earlier.

Hopefully, this is the last such change we need to provide in order to
upload lame.
