Well, I found absolutely nothing that looked irregular about the times
in the packets (whipped out a little perl script to compare various things),
but I'm pretty sure I have decided that I need to hit '-' 3 times in mplayer
(-300ms audio delay) right at the point where the 3rd file gets concatenated
in the list of the 6 files that make up the whole video.

I guess I can try inserting (or is it deleting) 300ms of silence in the audio
at that timestamp and see if it comes out right :-).
