Version 1.10 causes Kodi to crash (segfault) with certain MP3 files.
The conclusion that taglib 1.10 is to blame comes from a Kodi ticket I created: http://trac.kodi.tv/ticket/16463
There is a fix from Kodi that should get backported into v16 due to this ticket: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/8524

Of course, that only prevents Kodi from crashing, it doesn't actually fix taglib.

Let me know how I can help out with any debugging. There is already some information in the Kodi ticket.
This task depends upon

Has anyone reported this to taglib upstream?

Until someone does, the only thing we can do here is backport the workaround to kodi

FTR: This is fixed upstream already, but the fix doesn't apply to 1.10. We need to wait for a new release.

Ah good, it was reported upstream already. Sorry, didn't have time yet to check that.
