Yeah, the 0/8k thing is a mistake. Forgive me. Computer science classes were
many years and many, many beers ago. Feel free to fix it, though I'm not sure
why anyone would want AAC-LC files with such a low bitrate. My head hurts too
much right now to think up an elegant solution. The lazy way would be to get
rid of the 8k option and make it "Default", because ffmpeg will (sanely)
default to 128k if you give it a 0 value for bitrate.

"What kind of encoder is the default "aac"?" 
It is LGPLv2. See: http://ffmpeg.org/index.html#aac_encoder_stable
If you meant something else by "what kind", please be more specific.

"The primary patch is designed to still work with faac / libfaac (at least
according to the person who wrote it), as far as I am aware."
No, I said it would be nice if it did. But then, the only case where that would
be useful is for people using really new versions of Amarok and really old
versions of ffmpeg. In other words, not important enough for me to put coding
effort into it.
