There's no support for reading Xing/LAME VBR header tags in libmad, but the code to do it can be found in madplay (see tag.c).
Note that this code doesn't parse "Info" tags, which are just Xing tags but are usually written for CBR files (probably to not confuse players which assume existance a Xing tag means VBR).
Actually since version 0.15.1b, it does -- at your suggestion, in fact. It also reads any LAME tag following the Xing info, which contains Replay Gain information.
