[Banshee-List] Mirage not working

[Jeremy Leonard <jeremy leonard web de>]

Hello,

executing Banshee in random by similar mode with the --debug-mirage 
switch, I always got the same huge average weighted distance for every 
song, and the selected songs were not at all similar.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Total ms spent in Distance func: 0 ms - spent reading: 0 
ms; total calls: 0
>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Distance [min, max] = [3,402823E+38, 0]


After downloading the latest source from git and making some minor code 
changes, the distance calculation now seems to work:

Has anyone else noticed this behaviour in other releases/platforms?

Kind regards,
