I remember from a few months ago that one of the empeg guys (Peter?) had determined that lame's VBR nogap option worked fine if you did the following things:
  1. Hack the lame source to get nogap to work with VBR and to generate VBR headers
  2. Use a utility to fix the VBR headers because the ones that lame writes are incorrect or invalid or corrupt.
Is that all still correct? If so, has someone submitted a bug report to the lame developers that their VBR headers are ... well ... lame?
