No, 22-4 -> all MIDI worked, 23-1->no MIDI worked, 23-4->seg.fault on
MIDI out.

PD connects to MIDI port, all audio is fine, but in any 23 release, I do
not have MIDI (although it appears to connect), and in the lastest
release, MIID output cause immediate seg fault.

I suspect this error is more subtle than just your 23-4 changes,
Guenter, because of the loss of fuctionality at
23-1.
Your changes may just have exposed where RedHat OSS fails with new 0.23
scheme.

PS: my Keykit and playmidi programs are quite functional, so I doubt
it's related to my *specific* RH setup.
