EasyTAG-2.1.4-destroyed cover

If it's a bug in taglib, this conversation belongs on taglib-devel at kde.org, 
not here.  I'd talk to them soon, because 1.5 is gearing up for release, and 
it doesn't get released often.

Note that you should test this out with the latest SVN version of taglib.  If 
you are using taglib 1.4 release, it could very well be fixed already.
