I found an mp3 I have that's affected by the regression (can't share it because it's copyrighted).

Tips for finding one, if you have mp3's: MP3 files you may have downloaded several years ago are most likely to be affected; open them with hexedit, scroll to the end of the file (hit the '>' key), and if you see TAG and some English text (with some dots interspersed) at the end in the ASCII view column on the right, it has an ID3v1 tag.  Not all such files are affected.

So you don't have to listen to the whole file, you can use the skip frames option (-k) where it seems that 1000 frames is approximately 27 seconds.  So the test file I have is 1:26 long, so I used mpg123 -k 3000 file.mp3 to test it, and only had to listen to the last few seconds of it, before it displayed the following between the track metadata and the line with the track length that says "[1:26] Decoding of file.mp3 finished.":

"Warning: Big change (MPEG version, layer, rate). Frankenstein stream?

This was a Frankenstein track."

Note that you can also use the test option (-t) and you don't even have to listen to any sound.  In that case the (-k) option still works but is less useful, it'll only save you a second or so.

The updated packages fix this and this warning no longer appears.  I tested on Mageia 3 i586 and Mageia 4 i586.
