Does lame need vorbis? I say not...
I use a program called CDex for CD ripping > Vorbis.
CDex can work with external encoders as long as they
accept input via STDIN, which Lame does. I used the
Vorbis functionality for encoding to Ogg.
When encoding to Ogg via Lame - most of the
functionality that Lame provides is not used, since
Vorbis has its own filters, VBR control,
psycho-accoutic analysis etc etc etc - so I reckon you
should use Lame for ONLY mp3 and a Vorbis encoder for
ogg.
Besides, removing a few #ifdefs can only be a good
thing :)
I could easily write myself a Vorbis encoder that
accepts input from STDIN, so ogg 1.0 encoding can
still be done from CDex (or use one of the CDex plugis....)
