If you have a version of mplayer which can actually play the bad
sections of that file, all I can say is that I want to know how it does
it. The squeeze version, which crashes, has code very similar to the
existing Audacious code. The sid version adds some fairly simple error
handling, which looks like it would skip over the bad sections just like
Marillat's lenny version does. (But I can't run the sid version, so I
can't verify that that is what it actually does.)

I'm no expert in .ape decoding, so I think that the patch that just
plays silence over the bad sections is the best that I can do.
