Please post patches to the bug tracker so your work is not needlessly
duplicated.

If I remember correctly, the code uses sizeof(int) when writing the
file and sizeof(int16) when reading it. Or the other way around. Or
something completely different. I had a hell of a time fixing it,
since int is 16 bits on Windows and 32 bits everywhere else. You might
be hitting regressions of this conversion.
