I have already done some work on this. I have bindings to libogg, libvorbis
and
libvorbisfile, although I lack some testing. The libvorbisfile binding seems
to
work OK (I saved the output (RAW/PCM) to a file, converted the raw data to
WAV
using Audacity, and played it using WinAmp).

Maybe I should structure and comment the code a bit, before adding license
headers
and releasing them.
