MSACM: winemp3 codec crashes on seek, reimplement with libmad?

I was trying to exercise the winemp3 builtin codec using a Visual Basic
control that essentially implements the Windows Media Player look
(MSDXM.OCX). After specifying native quartz.dll for this app, I tested a
few AVIs with mp3-encoded soundtracks. What I can notice is that the
sound has very annoying jitters, and in addition, it crashes on a seek.
Some people have noticed the jitters too
(http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3853). However, rather than
trying to fix the wine fork of mpeglib, I was toying with the idea of
reimplementing the codec as a libmad (GPL) wrapper. Are there any issues
I should take into account before trying this?
