OK.

Since my last email, I've just checked what taglib does, and they seem
to have a hack to handle exactly the same, that is:
 - try the syncsafe size
 - read next tag
 - if not a tag, try the non-syncsafe size, read next tag, and use the
non syncsafe size if the tag is valid

I'll do that on Thursday, unless anyone beats me to it...
