It's possible to call lame.exe multiple times without having the thing crash. 
Therefore it seems strange to me that one requirement for being part of the ACM (which 
is that multiple instances must be possible) is not met by Lame. I don't get it... Is 
it because the ACM uses a library instead of an executable? Is it possible to call an 
EXE through the ACM?
