Thanks for the research and fix. However the commit log for fixes like
this should always include some details about since when the problem is
occurring and why. Indeed, we want to easily understand if the problem
is applicable to our LTS branch.

In this case, I did the research: the problem didn't exist before the
bump of libsndfile to 1.0.31. Since the bump to libsndfile to 1.0.31
was done in June 2021, the LTS branch is not impacted.

I have amended the commit log with those details, but it would be good
to have such details in your future commit logs :-)

Thanks a lot!

Thomas
