Death of a gearbox??

I'm getting a strange sound while accelerating and lately it's begun to be more common while driving at static speeds. It's not quite a "hoot" sound but more like a sad whimper. An old Top Gear I remember indicated that the "sound of dying dogs" at the top of 3rd and 5th was the sign of a gearbox going bad. While I do get it sometimes at those times, I'm also getting it around 2000-2500 RPMs in nearly every gear.
Not sure if I've got that job in me, so I thought I'd check here before debating what to do with it....any and all thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.
