Bug description:
  Would be nice to include aoTuV [1] Release 1 patch to libvorbis. aoTuV is an improved libvorbis encoder, that, while keeping ABI compatibility, gives many improvement:
  * better quality at all bitrates versus libvorbis-1.1.2 [2], giving aoTuV better quality than other codec (AAC, MP3, MPC, WMA, ...) [3];
  * support of quality down to -2 (32kb/s at 44kHz stereo), versus -1 (45kb/s at 44kHz stereo) of libvorbis-1.1.x;
  * encoding speed 10% better thanks to the included Vorbis-OptSort patch (improve ordering loop);

  aoTuV Release 1 have just been releases. aoTuV Release 1 is the same
  as of beta4.51 (released on 2005-11), renamed after a lot of testing
  of the audio community (especially on hydrogenaudio forum [4]) and
  this is the reccomended vorbis encoder [5].
