flac dev - Apr 2013 - Pre-release 1.3.0pre4 (hopefully the last)

Hi all,

I have tagged 1.3.0pre4 in git and provided a tarball here:

    http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/flac/beta/flac-1.3.0pre4.tar.xz

I have built and tested the git tree on:

    linux-x86_64
    openbsd5-i386
    freebsd5-i386

as well as successfully cross compiling from Linux to 32 and 64 bit
MinGW.

As far as I am concerned, the only thing left to do for this release
is to update the version numbers and dates through out.

I will still accept bug fixes for this release, but I am no longer
accepting feature updates.

Cheers,
Erik

I uploaded Windows binaries for willing testers at 
http://www.saunalahti.fi/~cse/temp/flac-1.3pre4-win32.zip .
I have been using the git version for my own encodes for a while now 
without any issues.

I successfully compiled 1.3.0pre4 on MacOS X 10.8 and the tests succeeded.  My
configuration is

  Configuration summary :

    FLAC version : ........................ 1.3.0pre4

    Host CPU : ............................ x86_64
    Host Vendor : ......................... apple
    Host OS : ............................. darwin12.3.0

    Compiler is GCC : ..................... yes

There were several warnings during the build, though, all concerning shadowing
of the global signal() function:

Yep there are a couple of warnings like that that are benign
but which I will fix in the next release cycle.

Thanks for testing.

On OS/2 compile dies here,
   CC     win_utf8_io/win_utf8_io.lo
win_utf8_io/win_utf8_io.c:13:75: error: windows.h: No such file or directory
...
with lots of more errors.
The problem is in configure.ac. I don't have new enough autotools to 
test properly but applying this directly to configure fixes it.
The build also dies here,
   CC     utils.o
utils.c: In function 'get_console_width':
utils.c:177: error: storage size of 'w' isn't known
utils.c:178: error: 'TIOCGWINSZ' undeclared (first use in this function)
utils.c:178: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
utils.c:178: error: for each function it appears in.)
utils.c:177: warning: unused variable 'w'

possible solution that returns a VIO consoles width attached.

Patches applied and will be in this release. Thanks.

Add to that:
- linux-x86_64 (passed usual tests, when configured with no options, 
--enable-sse)
- minGW (not w64) on Windows 7 32-bit
- Visual Studio 2012 on Windows 7 32-bit
- armv6l-unknown-linux-gnueabihf (raspbian)

Furthermore I've ran the tests I used for the lossless comparison which 
is on the FLAC website. The results are attached. I'm not sure what 
happened, but it seems something happened to my system (I did no 
software update or something of that sort), the results are not fully 
reproducible when considering decoding. I'll look into this. However, 
these results still show that there hasn't been a (severe) regression in 
performance on linux.
