This patch is rather intrusive and furthermore would make taglib link to
a library that is not even in Debian, so I won't apply it.

I seem to recall that there was an option in amarok to set the charset
of ID3v1 tags, but I can't find it now. Maybe it's more useful that you
see why it was removed, or that you talk with the taglib author to
include your patch.

HTH,

We learned that the Linux load average rolls over at 1024. And we
actually found this out empirically.
