Summary: [ext13/wavinfo]: returns often wrong data

Initial Comment:
Many files, that seem compliant with the RIFF WAVE format and also can be played back by a various of players and are read fine by Pd's [readsf~], give strange values with [wavinfo]. I couldn't verify this claim by reading the code, but from having tried some files i could find, it seems, that only files with a header of the usual 44 bytes are read correctly, but not files with a bigger header size. 

Please contact me off-list, if you need an example file.
