What Does This Patch Do?
------------------------

It fixes a problem a lot have people have had with the MP3 decoder crashing Quake2 at
startup.

Why The Hell Did It Take So Long To Arrive?
-------------------------------------------

Apologies for the delay - I've had little time to spend on DMM lately, and it took
a while to find. The problem was not in the Quake2 mod, but in the operational fixes I'd
made to the FreeAmp MP3 decoder plugins. There was a rouge call to a debug DLL which I 
missed.
Some people don't have this DLL (unfortunately it's on every machine I have access to,
hence the problems I had trying to recreate it) and this caused the problem. I've since
tracked the calls down and removed them.

Have fun with DMM!

Steve
