Versions of Lame that can make oggs don't use Gpsycho for that. They use the same code that's in libvorbis and therefore the same psychoacoustic model as is used when you use oggenc. I'm not sure if libvorbis is statically linked to lame, if yes it might be an older version than the one you can use with oggenc and this means not so good quality.
