Now that you have your mpg123 plugin working it probably doesn't make
much sense.

Ideally other multimedia frameworks would have OpenMAX IL support, and
so if both mad and libmpg123 provide an OpenMAX IL API they would work
transparently on the same multimedia frameworks [1].

That's of course theoretical because so far I only know of GStreamer,
Helix, and Android's player that support OpenMAX IL.
