I think I had the same problem as Martin when I wrote my rip-encode 
bash-script for ogg's. When I tried to use the -t argument in a script it 
behaved very strang. It seemed like the command-line got parsed incorrectly.

If I let the script echo the vorbiscomment commandline instead of running it, 
and then ran it manually, the line worked. I didn't report it since I wasn't 
sure if it was a bug or some bash-feature I didn't understand.

I then changed my script to generate a file and run a line like:

vorbiscomment -a $oggfile -c $tagfile

that worked.
