Hmm, I didn't know that -autosync was already so.
Anywat that is the expected behaviour, as A-V sync value reports
the streams sync, not the audible delay. We should do teh same as in
g2, so either display 2 values (streams and audible sync) or fake it,
ie. add timer underflow and inaccuracy values to the displayed A-V delay.

At least it have an advantage: we can split the YourSystemIsTooSLow
message to multiple parts, depending on it's really too slow sys
(timer underrun), buggy soundcard (inaccurate timing), or broken file
(streams desync).
