problems with new mpg123

(I hope it's ok to post rpmforge problems here).

The latest mpg123 mpg123-0.60-1.fc5.rf.i386.rpm sounds
really awful
(scratchy with lots of buzzing) on my FC4 and FC5 systems.
Rebuilding
the rpm with "./configure --prefix=/usr" rather
than "%configure"
makes it sound good again. Is there some configuration I
have to do on
my system to make the original sound good or is it just
broken?

Seems like this could be due to the default CFLAGS used for
the build,
as %configure sets them, whereas plain ./configure doesn't.

If you want to debug the problem any further, and ideally
report it
upstream, echo the % macro to get its entire
content, and
test builds adding all the parameters little by little, i.e.
:

export CFLAGS="-O2"
./configure --prefix=/usr

then

export CFLAGS="-O2 -g"
./configure --prefix=/usr

and so on...

BTW, I don't consider the current mpg123 to be ready yet.
One should
stick to the older but still more solid and full-featured
mpg321,
although this should change fairly soon.
