Thanks for filing such a detailed bug report. I'm all for replacing libmodplug with a better maintained alternative, however, the ffmpeg libopenmpt demuxer currently has bug causing head-buffer-overflows in libopenmpt. I expect that the fix [1] will make it into the next ffmpeg bugfix release, so I intend to switch to libopenmpt when importing that.
