Hello.  I encountered a strange problem with stdio
when I try to play an MP3 file(on NetBSD-1.5BETA).

    It works fine when I converted an MP3 file into a WAV file
(in a disk, utilizing madplay) and then play the WAV file
with 'waveplay'.  But when I connected madplay and waveplay
via pipe, it failed.

    Moreover, it is so strange that this problem seems
independent of above 2 applications, according to the following
test(5-6th bytes are different).  Does anyone have any idea?

Thanks.
