I just wanted to try and reproduce the issue, but those URLs are no
longer valid (in fact BBC is about to switch away from what they
replaced real audio with, it seems) and I'm having trouble finding other
radio streams in that format that still work. Pretty much obsolete, it
seems.

So unless someone speaks up confirming that the issue is still valid on
current versions of mpd and supporting libraries, I'd be inclined to
archive this bug.
