@mysta please take a look at the attached diff.

libmad-md_size.diff ( CVE-2017-8372 CVE-2017-8373 ) and libmad-length-check.patch ( CVE-2017-8374) from Debian replaces frame_length.diff
libmad-0.15.1b-gcc43.patch is from Suse and stops configure filtering CFLAGS replaces optimize.diff
libmad.patch renamed to libmad-pkgconfig.patch
amd64-64bit.diff renamed to libmad-amd64-64bit.diff

Removed CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -ftree-vectorize -ftree-vectorizer-verbose=1" which had no effect due to configure filtering CFLAGS.

Worth mentioning is that there's a fork of libmad that integrates the patches from Debian and Fedora: https://github.com/tenacityteam/libmad/commits/main
