Update to mad123-0.8.3.
This version adds support for several different audio backends, playlists, a manual page contributed by Lubomir Sedlacik, and numerous bug fixes. Currently supported audio backends are the original Sun (OSS) backend, an optional aRts backend (still experimental, so not compiled by default), and a raw pcm backend which writes the decoded stream to a file or stdout.
