My personal opinion is that that piece of code is dirty anyway
(ff_rm_parse_packet() for AAC doesn't read the complete RM packet, but
just one AAC frame), whereas for others (ATRAC3, cook, etc.) it reads
the multiple packets and stores them in ast->buf. Maybe for AAC, it
should do that also. That also allows to get rid of the special case
in ff_rm_retrieve_cache().

Anyway, if you don't want to go that far, this works too, yes.
