Yes, that was a bug.

Yes, that's another bug.  The "AMRDeinterleaver" class should have 
reimplemented the virtual function "doStopGettingFrames()" (by 
calling "stopGettingFrames()" on the input source ("RawAMRRTPSource").

I've now installed a new version (2005.10.05) that fixes both of 
these bugs.  Thanks for reporting these.
