Okay.  Now that my taxes are done, I may look into it.

Mythmusic already depends on several external libs.  Would it make
sense to just set mythmusic up to depend on the goom2k4 lib, or is
there a reason you want the goom source incorporated into the
mythmusic tree?

The new goom does have some new effects, but they may come at a price.
 I have a pretty powerful frontend, and running goom2k4 in a maximized
window (using xmms) causes my machine to slow to a crawl.  It may have
something to do with it kicking out mmx on my Athlon processor.
