Thanks for making this available. I am not sure I understand what you
tried to change in sox, since the current cvs code compiles "out of
the box" in DJGPP. To compile, I just downloaded the cvs source code,
then in a bash shell did autoheader, then autoconf, then configure,
then make. I don't have the mp3 libraries on my machine, so it was
built without them.

What does need to be fixed is making stdin and stdout binary. You don't
seem to have done that with your binary. Try adding the following patch:

Sox passed all the tests in "tests.sh" with the exception of "float to
unsigned bytes conversion". That failure appeared to be due to bytes
sometimes being off by one from rounding. That test appears to be
omitted from the "tests.bat" file.
