Thanks. It still doesn't work with gcc 3.3, but at least 4.0.1 compiles it now.
I have just been doing some testing with V0 --vbr-new on LAME 3.97 and found a track that was not transparent to me at that setting and almost also on 3.98.2.
LAME 3.97 -V0 --vbr-new
Drum smearing at 0:06, or could be a stereo collapse artifact or a noise on the left channel.

I've compiled it long time ago on my G5 myself, but I just tried your universal binary: I get a bus error on my iMac G5 
Maybe it's not realy "universal"?
Maybe it's not realy "universal"?"Universal" point to the fact that its both PPC and Intel code in the same binary.
Perhaps you don't run Mac OS 10.5, which is what I used to compile this...

Yes indeed. I'm still running 10.4
Does anyone know why I cannot download lame_enc.dll from LAME's site and instead have to go to RareWares?
Because the LAME site does not offer binaries at all due to patent restrictions (distributing sources does not require patent fees to be paid, distributing binaries does AFAIK).

3.3 was labeled sometimes as a buggy version of gcc.
I have tried using version 3.4.5 in mingw (windows) and with it compiles just fine. Of course, it may be using different #define paths.
I'll give it a try again this evening and post the error log.
i have update lame to 3.98
but this version 3.98.2 is different i can't find the history about the 3.98.2
i mean in rarewares i can find 3.98.2
where can i find info about the improvement about 3.98.2 vs 3.98
in the history i can find this , nothing about the 3.98.2

Well, I freshly depacked the source and now it also works with gcc3.3
Something must have been messed up that worse that even a make clean didn't fix it.

I am having one hell of a time trying to figure out how to make the new Lame release work with EAC as it has no .exe file in the zip download! All the code stuff is so far over my head.
I need simple answer as to how to get high rate VBR working with the new LAME release! (A command line code would be great once it is working!) I realize there are many different command codes ( I have seen far too many!
) but don't know how to decide on what is best for a highest rate VBR encode in EAC.Thanks in advance for any help.
Get the latest LAME bundle here (3.98.2)
Then, follow the wiki for EAC + LAME
Forget about --vbr-new since it's by default in 3.98.2
--> -V0 %s %d
V0 is the best quality VBR setting
BUT:
Since the recent release of lame 3.98.2, I've read a lot of forum posts. Most of people who used V2 by the past now prefer V3 and even lower because of the constant development and improvement of the codec.

My experience with embedding album art:
foobar2000 shows it. My hardware player doesn't.
If i embed an albumart from the same source file with mp3tag, both f2k and my hardware player show it.
What i found out: Mp3tag embeds the albumart as "front cover", but an albumart embedded with the lame encoder is called "other".
Is there a way to tell the encoder to embed the albumart as "front cover"? Or would you call it worth a change for one of the next versions?

If you are using a PowerPC Mac, then try Lame for OSX PPC
It contains a gcc 3.3 compile, a gcc 4.01 compile and a fresh cvs checkout (3.99 a1) compiled with gcc 4.01. I hope it's helpfull for you.
How about a version for the Intel side of OS X?
