Might be some bug in architecture detection ??
But somehow tha target i686 is most probably being detected on your system
and I assume it's correct. Maybe thre is potential bug in compliler
which noone is noticing (I'm using gcc-3.3 - so users withiht
different compiler have to report)
You may try to use:  --without-pic option - ithis code path should
be slightly more tested and also it will be faster on x86 architecture ;)

Send me this file via email please.

Well I've been writing hw decoder long time ago  - I'll try to borrow
friends yamaha to recheck how it works - it might be somehting really stupid
most probably as from time time some interfaces are internaly changed
some bug may haev been introduced this way.

Well if you could check eventually what's up with hw decoder (some timning
issue) it might be helpfull though I believe it will be something very simple
if I'll check it myself...
