I have a look at gme webpage. There is a new version 0.6.1 which addresses 
security issues.

There is no game-music-emu package in my Linux distribution, so if I want to 
get this contrib working under Linux, I have to patch the source code and 
package it.

No thanks.

I will remove that from my local git tree.

Best,
Gilles
