Someone find and beat them into a pulp for leading other people astray.

audio/x-speex is recommended in the Speex's own manual... but for RTP
only.  And for that, audio/speex should start being used because its
registration process is nearly over (just as soon as the RFC for Speex
RTP is published).

Really now?  It would be aweome if I too could replicate that success,
but last two builds I tried (653 and a recent Joyride) still didn't do
the trick.  I'm going to install 691 or later and see how that goes.
