Yes that's a backwards diff...

sys_close_midi has several incarnations but you must choose one. The MSW 
version uses portmidi, so if you can build portmidi then use s_midi_pm.c 
by specifying it in the makefile.

sys_initloadpreferences in s_file.c also has a version for each 
platform. The MSW version looks in the registry for preferences but the 
unix version just uses the .pdsettings preferences file. I would go for 
the unix version because I dislike the opaqueness of the registry.
