Unblock request mpg321 0.2.10.5 ?

[Barry deFreese <bdefreese@debian.org>]

Hi,

I have just done some pretty significant changes to mpg321 with a QA 
upload.  Ideally it should probably get in to Lenny but I did bump the 
compat level to 5 as it was set at 2.  It fixes several bugs in the 
package but I realize that is a no-no for release so if you don't want 
to unblock it I understand but the package has been severely 
unmaintained.  It really probably should be removed but has fairly high 
popcon stats.  Here is the changelog of the changes I made:
