Description Dem@nXP 2007-08-26 10:35:02 UTC

MikMod freezes when loading "Again - Link Stash 1.6.8.0kg.XM" and some another songs (in my 20 MB archive some hundred songs). Mikmod freezes every time, when trying to play this tracks

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download Again - Link Stash 1.6.8.0kg.XM ( http://www.mybloop.com/FoudeGuerre/KeygenMusic/Again_-_Link_Stash_1.6.8.0kg.XM )
2. Try to open it with MikMod (I tested mikmod 3.2.1 and mikmod3.2.2-beta1)
3. Watch like MikMod freezes...

Actual Results:  
MikMod freezes

Expected Results:  
Amarok 1.3.8 play this song normally via gstreamer. Windows players play it correctly too.

That file is a bit broken (premature EOF when reading instruments). Some module-trackers will be able to load the file, while others don't. But however, the hang in mikmod is not good.

A short strace shows that mikmod forever tries to read beyond the end of file.

(The failing package is actually libmikmod, and not mikmod)
